My workaround is to use the software raidtools with the drives on the highpoint controller set as standalone drives. Since the installer cannot use a RAID set up on a highpoint controller, can't there be a warning that it is not supported. Lot's of people have this and lot's of people post this error. Since the array is obviously detected, If the installer could display a simple warning, such as "A drive array on a Highpoint RAID controller has been detected. Although this controller will work as standard ATA controller in Mandrake Linux, highpoint RAID is not supported at this time. Please contact Highpoint Technologies for additional information" a lot of problems and frustration could be avoided. - -- Greg -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+W2XkGu5uuMFlL5MRAr8mAJ9ap3YpopDBVDRL8642eF9nZy5s2gCfabuW i6uteYpnQOe065sdRJzEJ7k= =Jdo2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
