I am trying to configure a raid 5 array on a Redhat 9.0 operating system. I am using an adaptec ata raid 2400A controller with 4 200GB drives. The controller driver has been installed, the BIOS can see the raid drive but the OS cannot detect it. I am very new to linux and dont know what to do next. I have a couple of questions I need to be answered. 1) Should I format the drive, partition, and then mount it? 2) I tried using fdisk and cfdisk to partiion it but the drive was not identified. What do I do? The OS boots from a separate IDE drive which is working properly. ********************************************* Onyi Baiye Graduate Assistant Department of Information Technology GCCIS, RIT 102 Lomb Memorial Dr Rochester, NY 14623-5608 Phone: (585) 475-4550 "Nothing in life is to be feared.
