Molle, interesting, mixed hpt37x *and* hpt45x formated RAID sets... Did you move one set from an older controller to a newer one and create the other using the the new controllers BIOS ? Could you send me the tar'ed and bzip2'ed output (*.dat and *.offset files) "dmraid -rD" creates in a file named hptxxx-Molle_Bestefich.tar.bz2 and the "fdisk -l" output of the 2 sets, please.
