Hello Gr8 PPL.

I am begginer in Linux DEBIAN instalation. I have following problem, I got this conf:

Mainboard: M/B GigaByte GA-8N-SLI Pro (RTL) Socket775 <nForce4 SLI> PCI-E+SLI+GbLAN+1394 SATA RAID U133 ATX 4DDR-II <PC-5300>

3 HDD: 2 SATA2 with RAID and one for Linux DEBIAN installation

I cant even install but I must have RAID support!

is there any solution? I have read here about dmraid but cant find what it does, or will it be suitable for DEBIAN?

Thank you in advance.

Hello!

You need an new kernel with the nforce4 RAID driver. It' not easy because it's a software raid controlled by the BIOS, right?

You need dmraid:
