Yes this what I tried , just a question shouldn't it be good idea to add ability use atacontrol from sysinstall ? ( lets say if I have two normal disks ad0 and ad2 and I want to use them in stripe configuration ? ) without downloading fixit cd image that not possible, because on fixit floppy there is no atacontrol... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Doug White" <dwhite@gumbysoft.com> To: "Putinas" <pilkis@gmx.net> Cc: <freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG> Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2003 18:18 PM Subject: Re: sata stripe & dual boot > On Tue, 14 Oct 2003, Putinas wrote: > > > Just a quick question, I have setup SATA stripe from two disks, and I have > > 3 partitions 4Gb each and the rest for data storing.
