Hey guys, I've currently a 40gb hd and am planning to get another 40gb to create a RAID 0 array using my mobo's Highpoint controller. Since I would be reformating my hdd, I'm planning to install Redhat 7.2 as a second OS to Windoze ME. This will be my first time installing Linux and also the first time I'm gonna use a RAID array. Therefore I'm not sure as to what's the order of things I need to do for a dualboot WinME and Redhat setup. For instance, whats the first thing I need to do to get my system to recognize the RAID array, how many partitions do I need to create for Linux, if any, etc. I've been told that I do not need to create a separate partition for Linux in fdisk, as the Redhat installer will create one for me, and also that Redhat requires a boot floppy to recognize the RAID array. My mobo did not come with any such boot floppy and after checking with the Highpoint website, I found something for Redhat, but its over 10Mb! Can someone give me a rough step by step guide on how I can do a clean dualboot WinMe/Linux setup on a Raid array? Thanks in advance my system specs p4 1.6 abit BD7II with Highpoint HPT372 RAID gf4ti4200 256ddr Edit : Sorry for double post.
