you have to configure a megaraid card so it knows what to do with your 
disks, either create a raid or multiple raids, or configure it for 
all-disks-as-jbod.   this /can/ be done with the bios, but its really 
annoying to use, I generally put a copy of megacli on a USB stick and 
boot my installation media with 'single' to run it, otherwise the linux 
kernel doesn't see them.
