Hi,=20

i have a hp dl320 with an integrated raid controller. I don't want to=20
use that, instead i want to use gmirror. To use the 2 IDE drives, I=20
configured 2 raid0 arrays (each with 1 drive) in the controller's bios.=20
Now i wanted to use gmirror, labeled the second drive. When I did a=20
reboot, the raid controller's bios seems to overwrite the gmirror=20
metadata with its own metadata. Is it impossible to use gmirror witch=20
such a configuration?
