Dell CERC RAID - No disks found

Hi guys.

Trying to install SuSE Enterprise 10 and now on ubuntu-7.04-server-i386 on an old Dell PowerEdge 1600SC.

It contains an LSI Logic® CERC ATA100/4ch IDE RAID controller.

I have a RAID-1 logical disk setup via the RAID.

I've tried all instances of the megaraid driver but Ubuntu (and also SuSE) do not find any hard disks.

Any ideas? (I've looked through the forum and although the question has been asked I've seen no fix for the issue)

Thanks in advance.

Perhaps not many "RAID on Dell" users hang out in this forum yet. I would suggest posting or searching the archives of the Dell Poweredge Linux mailing list: http://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge

As I'm facing the same problem, I've run into _this_. Not quite reassuring.

hi all I am hoping you can help my mik rosoft IT man tried to load fiesty fawn yesterday and got stuck at every turn can anybody give us links or help to find all the correct drivers (it would be nice to start by seeing the hard drives, and some network cards would be good, i know you have probably been asked a hundred times before but we are just crossing the first of the servers over.

thanks in advance for helping this muppet find the answers:D
