[PLUG] Debian Install with RAID problem


-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Trying to Install Debian Sarge via net install (via CD) on a dell power
edge 6350. The power edge has a PERC2/SC raid controller in it, with 3
8.5 Gig drives. I have the raid controller setup to do mirroring on two
of the drives with one as a hot spare.

That *seems* to be set up correctly, formatted the disks, created the
array, set to RAID 1, and then initialized the logical device.
Rebooted, with the Debian cd. I then proceed to attempt to install
Debian, which works well until it tries to find the hard disk so it can
partition. It cannot.

I understand the perc2/sc uses the megaraid module, which I loaded by
hand after the attempt to partition failed. I then attempted this step
in the install again, no change. I tried various little things I found
online, nothing seems to work. I am sort of at a loss here as to what
to do next.

If anyone has any suggestions I would be happy to hear them. :)
