Definitely. Can you try an install based on a Fedora 7 liveCD?
I am currently downloading Fedora-7-Live-i686.iso. I will try installing it
tonight.
Maybe the problem is really with the nVidia hardware. I used to like it but am
seeing some bad (like more than usual for non intel products) press lately.
I'll keep you posted.

Too many variables ATM - we need to narrow it down to
- HW/driver or a problem in how the soft RAID was setup
- Fedora getting its panties in a knot at the sight of a soft RAID
- Our customisations not coping with RAID
I have all mainboard raid functions disabled. I trust md. I can pull the plug
on my CentOS webserver anytime (my power company has done so many times) and
nothing bad ever happened.
I also have the ACPI HPET table disabled as this seems necessary to make some
linux distros (and solaris) boot in the first place.
