linux/raid problem, linux not recognizing bios raid

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



hi -

i dont have tons of linux experience.  my in-depth unix experience was many
years ago.

im building a system containing:
- abit ic7g motherboard
- 2 wd 160gb sata hard drives
- red hat linux workstation version 3

the drives have been physically installed and the bios configured to run the
disks as a raid (either raid0 or raid1). this is verified during the post.

when i try to install linux, the disk partitioning program reports two disks
/dev/sda & /dev/sdb individually with 160gb capacities available for
partitioning, not one.  whether using bios raid0 or raid1, only 1 disk
should be available (with 160 or 320 gb available, depending on the raid
flavor).

whats wrong?
