Hello,
I am following Murty's helpful HOW-TO to install a SMP system over a FastTrak 100 Lite on-board RAID (MSI mobo). Rather than a mirror, though, I am trying a stripe set with 2 drives (one on each channel, each a master). These are the only drives on the system other than a CD-ROM on the second regular IDE channel.
Everything goes well to start:
7.3 base installation id fine and I can boot with the FastTrak module and
ramdisk.
Build of a 2.4.19 kernel is fine, I based mine on the config provided by
Murty.
New .19 kernel is self contained using the ataraid and Promise support, no
need for ramdisk or Promise module. It boots and seems to function ok but a
slew of drive errors occur on boot..
Try the latest 2.4.20-pre kernel.
