Works great for me. I have 2 systems with dual RAID 1 30GB IDE drives. I have also tried with the Promise ATA100 RAID PCI controller. It works well also (need drivers from Promise for RedHat (only distro I have tried it with)). The only problem with the Promise card is that you will only get RAID errors on bootup when it goes through the BIOS check. They don't have any monitoring software for linux yet.
In fact, we had a drive bail on our K12LTSP system. We just shut down pulled the drive and powered back up. It complained that it didn't have two drives then continued booting. All we have to do is replace the drive and resync it. Voila KW On Saturday 06 October 2001 15:38, you wrote: > Anyone here have any experience working with RAID 1 on a linux box?
