Hi all ... First off the scenario:

I've added two 120GB WDC 7200RPM 8MB Cache drives in a Raid0 stripe array to my ASUS A7V333 motherboard using the Promise MBFastTrak133 "Lite" bios on-board and installed WinXP (used for work, games and video editing - I'm not really concerned with fault tolerance, so I don't need mirroring).

The original hda drive (40GB Seagate Barracuda) currently contains WinXP and LILO, and hdb (same type of drive) contains MDK 9.1. hda will be formatted eventually to FAT32 for storage etc, and I'll keep MDK9.1 on hdb.

Now the questions ...[list=1][*]How do I get Mandrake to recognize the raid array?[*]Can I leave LILO on the MBR of hda and boot WinXP from it (It'll save me from switching boot devices in the bios)[/list=1]
I don't need/want/really care about writing to WinXP, I just need to pull files from it occasionally, and changing boot devices in the bios will annoy me pretty quick

Any help appreciated,

Baldrick

Awwww ... c'mon people Surely this has been done before
