My system freeze everytime I try to setup a software RAID5 over more than 1 PCI Promise IDE controller. Setup: Asus A7v8x motherboard with 2 HDs: one system, one RAID with 2 SATA:RAID with old PCI graphicscard with 3com LAN card with 2 U133TX2 Promise IDE RAID with each 2 HDs , so 4 HDs for RAID with 1 U100TX2 Promise with 2 HDs for RAID Gives 9 HDs for RAID5. Each HD is Master on IDE bus. When building a raid with the 3 HDs on MoBo & SATA and 2 HDs of ONE of these 3 promise, the RAID works flawless. But if I try to build a RAID over HDs of 2 of these Promise PCI Cards, the system freeze EVERYTIME. System used: Debian sarge, fresh install from friday, raidtools2 and kerne 2.4.27 Does ANYONE have any hints? Or does anyone uses a RAID over 2 or more Promise PCI Cards?
