4. I have an Adaptec 1210SA SATA RAID card. Why doesn't Linux support

The Adaptec 2x20 series are hardware raid cards, use the aacraid module,
and to the linux kernel look no different to Adaptec SCSI Raid cards that
use the same driver. Very good cards, by the way..

OP probably needs a /boot partition for a filesystem that big.
