What type of raid is it set up as... mirroring, Strip with parity, ext ? If is mirroring, have you tried moving an individual drive to an individual IDE controller without RAID and try to have the Boot disk access it from there? If it is mirroring you should be ok if you try this since it doesn't have to access the controller( do this with both) Remember what drive is on what controller. You are not going to able to load the IDE drivers with the Linux disk.It's expecting to load a *.gz file. See if the company that makes the controller has Linux drivers, if they do, copy the *.gz driver file to the SCSI folder on the floppy and it might load it.

I have an XP PC with IDE Raid. The PC lost connectivity, or more accurately, it lost credentials with the network. The local admin password is unknown and the user does not want to reinstall/repair. I do have a Linux Boot Disk that allows me to change admin password. However, due to the fact that this is IDE RAID, the disk cannot mount the partition. The linux does have SCSI drivers, but does not have IDE RAID drivers. I have the IDE RAID drivers available on a different diskette. I am unsure if how to load them with the Linux Boot Disk. Has anyone come across this and can you offer any suggestions? Thanks in advance for any assistance on this.
