I remember that on an IDE RAID card I got another device loaded at install time (md0 I think) as well as the two device types for the individual drives. With this SCSI Card / Drives I only see devices for the two seperate drives, not any unified device. Out of interest when I went back into the SCSI BIOS after installing 5.4 I noticed in the RAID section that it said "Degraded" next to the second disc suggesting things werent as they should be. Should I leave the Host RAID BIOS setting off or are there any other steps I should have taken ? Should the installer treat both of these drives together when auto partitioning (this worked great with the IDE RAID card) Any advice graciously appreciated Thanks !
