Hi guys
I got a SATA RAID Card today and tried to load debian on to it but the problem is that the distro does not recognise the sata disks has any one tried doing this ? The card is a ST Lab card using Si 3112A controller and i use seagate 160GB X 2 disk in RAID 1 Configration(actually i have not reached the point where to setup the type of RAID as the disks are not detected). The Distro i am using is Degian Sarge.
I belive that this controller is also used on ASUS A7N8X Delux motherboard so may be any one having a running linux could shed some light.
