RE: RAID installation

Sorry for my ignorance :)
But what is a megaraid2? And how do you supply it's drivers on
installation time to the installer? (if you can)

Thanks,
Shlomi

I don't think that 2.6 does support RAID.
I just installed sarge 2.4 on a controller using Megaraid2
driver AND the
2.6 install failed when it tried to find the HDD's.
The 2.4 kernel installed w/o a problem.

Hi, I just purchased a new MB w/RAID enabled (through intel's ICH7R,

netinst) , it couldn't find the disks. Help? TIA, Shlomi
PS: On windows
XP installation, in order to recognize the RAID sets, I have
to supply it
with drivers (F6). Any way to supply debian installation
with drivers? And
where do I find those drivers (everywhere I search it says kernel 2.6
supports raid).
