This is sorta a pre-software-raid question.

I just bought and built a box around the Gigabyte GA-7N400 Pro2 Mobo.  It
has 4 IDE ports, 2 normal, and 2 upon a raid controller.  I figured I could
avoid using Gigabyte's raid, and do software raid upon the 2 extra ports.

The problem I have is that the raid card seems to see the 2 drives plugged
into the raid-ide ports, but linux does not.

I was just testing/playing installing Debian Sarge.  I have 2 ide drives
total, and they are plugged into the raid-ide ports.  When I get to the part
about partitioning the hard drives, no hard drives are available

Any thoughts?

Thanks
Jay
