Using an Abit KT7A-RAID (Hightpoint IDE Raid) and two 60 gig IBM drives =
that are configured as RAID 0 (beautifully recognized as ar0 RAID 0 with =
two subdisk according to DMESG) I cannot get sysinstall (disklabel =
editor) to do a newfs on the RAID.

The error message is this:
DEBUG: MakeDev: Unknown major/minor for devtype.

Following earlier posts I did a 'MAKEDEV all' but no change.

Grateful for any tips,

Caro
