[gentoo-user] Raid and Gentoo

[Rafael Fernández López]

Hi,

I've bought a computer, and it has the possibility of making a RAID. I
configured it through the BIOS setup.

I've booted up Gentoo live cd with dodmraid parameter, so the raid was
placed in /dev/maer/whatever.

After installing everything (stage3, stage1 failed for me here in ~amd64),
I got to the critical point: GRUB.

I've *NO IDEA* of how should I configure GRUB to detect my RAID. If you
can help me I'd be very happy !!

Because I wonder: How can I say to GRUB where the kernel is, if for
reading the big hard disk it needs to have a module (or not), just the
kernel loaded, but what grub does is load the kernel, so WHAT I HAVE TO DO
?


Thank you very much,
Rafael Fernandez Lopez.
