IBM x346 Adaptec HostRAID
 
Hello everyone,

I recently got 6 IBM servers.

xSeries 346
8840
EDG
Ultra 320 RAID Controller (Adaptec)

http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/xseries/x346.html

Distribution: Slackware 11

I have 2 hdd IBM SCSI 10K 73GB, then I enabled HostRAID, made the RAID1 setting but slackware sees both drives... and not the RAID array.
I've tried all kernels from the Slackware 11.0 DVD, including huge26.s and nothing... still both hdd.

For now I did a software RAID1 but I need hardware RAID1, kernel running adaptec.s (2.4.33.3).

I seached Google and I found nothing about Adaptec RAID controller.

How should I see the RAID1 array for making partitions and installing slack? /dev/sda?


Please slackers, please... help another slacker, I really need your help to make Slackware see my hardware RAID1.

Tell me what informations do you need for resolving this problem.

Thanks!
