Default SIL3112 + slackware current iso



Hi

I had trouble installing slackware 9.1 onto my RAID0 partition.
Now I've tried the slackware-current ISO from
slack-current-03-03-04-install-d1.iso
Which seems fairly new to me. (Someone posted the FTP in the group, but now
I can't seem to find the adress.)

I boot the CD, it detects the controller correctly and finds the drives, but
when I try to cfdisk it just detects /dev/hda as a 120 GB with a corrupt
partition.
I've tried pointing it to the /dev/something that fdisk suggested as RAID
drives.
How do I make cfdisk or fdisk recognize the RAID array properly?

Any other ideas? I've tried boot disks but they aren't too fond of my LS-120
when I have to use windows to make them.
Otherwise I just have to arm myself with patience and wait for slack 10 to
come out *lol*

Thanks in advance.
Morten

Ok I found the solution by fooling around.
When the CD boot screen comes up press F3 and type ataraid.i
When you've logged in as root you type cfdisk /dev/ataraid/d0

That way I was able to see my old partitions and create the new ones.

Regards
Morten
