Are there any distros that support installing on and booting from HPT372
motherboard RAID 1 on which the RAID is already partitioned for
multiboot and on which W2K is already installed to boot from and use the
RAID 1? Google hasn't found me any.
I partitioned a single disk, formatted the Linux partitions using
Knoppix, created the RAID with the BIOS utility, installed W2K, then
tried to install Linux. Mandrake 9.2's installer corrupted W2K's space,
needlessly mangling partition tables that didn't need touching,
preventing booting anything. I next booted a SuSE 9.0 boot.iso, and its
installer showed empty partition tables. I was forced to do a complete
redo from scratch.
