[ILUG] Ubuntu Dapper and Promise fasttrack lite 100

[Bernhard Rohrer]

I am currently trying to convert my trusty old desktop to a server and 
so far failing. The problem is that I want to use the onboard raid, 
which  is the above mentioned chip, but the dapper live CD does not 
recognise the mirrorset as such but as two indendent disks. What i seem 
to need is the linuxraid kernel module, and these guys suggest a 
homebrew kernel: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/ATA-RAID-HOWTO/nativeraid.html

Now I'd rather not build my own live CD with me own kernel, and I have 
not been able to find anything on kernel 2.6.

is there anybody aware of a kernel parameter I can use, or any other 
suggestions?

thanks

Bernhard
