You need to have a custom build kernel with two ahc* entries: ahc0 ahc1 In your place I would connect all HDs to the single controller, partition 'em , do the install , build the kernel and then reconnect the HDs in the way I wanted. May be there is a way to tell the kernel to get second ahc* , but I doubt it Rashid
