dmraid booting-grub

[Erlend Davidson <E.R.M.Davidson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm currently running SuSE 9.0 with proprietory Fasttrak driver (only 
works on 2.4 kernel).  Desperate to upgrade to 2.6 kernel.  I played 
around with raiddetect, and got it into the initrd such that it would 
detect raid partitions at boot, but of course it didn't map anything.  
There has been a lot of talk about the lilo patch; is there a similar 
one for grub, or does it not need one?  How was I able to get raiddetect 
to run from initrd without a patch for grub?

Thanks,

Erlend
