Not sure if the Promise controller is as configurable as the mainboard itself, or maybe even configurable THRU mainboard BIOS - I have no experience with add-on IDE-type controllers. I normally work with SCSI myself. You may have to recover your data using an on-board (BIOS configurable!) IDE controller and re-partition when you put the disk(s) back on the Promise. BTW this is hardly a RAID-kernel-specific matter. Perhaps a more IDE/hardware oriented list will provide you with more detailed answers to this matter.
