Can't load partition on RAID after installation


Hello
I'm planning switching to Linux from Windows and chose Mandriva 2007 Free to be my new OS.
I have an ASUS A8V Deluxe motherboard with VIA VT8237 which provides RAID funcionality on SATA drives.
During installation process the installer recognizes my RAID setup and asks me if I want to enable it. I answer yes and the partition is available to even install on it. I choose anohter partition on an ATA HDD.
Everything goes fine but my problem occurs after successful installation.
The partition is not mounted and cannot be mounted.
/etc/fstab refers to /dev/mapper/via_something (I'm away from that computer and cannot check). When I look into /dev/mapper there is only one file: control
When I use Knoppix the RAID is recognized and the partition is mounted normally.
Any hint about things to do would be much appreciated
