The megaraid driver is hit and miss it works good with some controllers
and not with others ... there are improvements in newer kernels.
I would download the boot.iso from both centos-3.4 and centos-4.0 and
see if it recognizes the controller.
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/i386/images/
and
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/3/os/i386/images/
Boot from the ISO file and do:
linux rescue
When asked pick that the rescue image is at an http location use the
below information:
server: mirror.centos.org
path: centos/4/os/i386
Since there is no linux currently on there, skip the mounting
question ...
fdisk -l
should tell you if the drives are recognized
-----------------
You could also download just the CD-1 for centos-3.x and centos-4.x from
a public mirror and boot from that, then do:
linux rescue
from the isolinux boot prompt as well ... if one works, then get the
other ISOs for that version.
