the megaraid bios is nasty complex to use. and maybe you got a card
without it ... you're really better off booting linux from a CD, net,
whatever, to shell and using megacli. of course, megacli doesn't
/come/ with linux, so you have to get it, and make it available to your
standalone linux of choice (the centos installation boot at a linux
single will do, if you can access media with megacli on it.
and yes, as has been said before, megacli is a rather messy complex
command line. I found it much easier to understand when I stopped
using -'s on all the options (the - is optional) and stopped using
camelcase, then the commands are less messy. I ended up making my own
cheatsheet of common megacli commands formatted that way
