I've two machines with almost identical hardware (slightly different
CPUs). The SATA/RAID controller is SiI 3114.
One of the servers was installed a while ago by someone else, it's
running Fedora Core 5 and RAID is enabled:
# df -m
Filesystem 1M-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/dm-6 125931 2990 116441 3% /
/dev/dm-1 99 13 81 14% /boot
tmpfs 1012 0 1012 0% /dev/shm
/dev/dm-2 9917 151 9254 2% /tmp
/dev/dm-3 9917 237 9168 3% /var
# cat /etc/modprobe.conf | tail -n 1
alias scsi_hostadapter sata_sil
I installed CentOS 4.4 64bit on the other system, but I could not enable
RAID. The installer was always seeing 2 separate drives instead of one
RAID device.
Was it my mistake? Did I not enable the proper settings in the BIOS? (I
tried quite a few different settings)
Or is it perhaps that the CentOS kernel does not have the proper drivers
to support SiI 3114 in RAID mode?
