Does anybody have experience in setting up RAID in Linux using HPT370
chipset produced by HighPoint Technologies?
I can only find a Linux patch from its website
http://www.highpoint-tech.com/ , but it supports only non-RAID harddisk.
Is there any solution to get RAID worked?
Regards,
Jason

1. Need help with Highpoint HPT370 non-RAID
I'm installing Linux on a system with an ABIT BE6-II mobo with a
Highpoint HPT370 non-raid ata-100 chipset on it. The chipset works
fine, I'm quite sure, since I've installed Win98 on the drive without
problems.
I had linux on a SCSI drive so I'm using that as my base for installing
over onto the HPT370-controlled disk. I updated my kernel to 2.2.16
and applied the patch from www.linux-ide.org. There was no option for
HPT370 so I chose the HPT366 option (which I have read in other posts
to be the right option).
During Linux boot with this new kernel, I do see a new "hde" which
correctly lists my new disk's manufacturer and model info. But when I
get down to the partition check part of booting, I get a long series of
error messages such as "lost interrupt" every few seconds as the kernel
unsuccessfully tries to read the new drive's partition table. Once,
after a few minutes of this trying, the kernel continued and finished
booting, though the new drive wasn't available. Other tries since
then, the kernel never quits trying to read the new drive's partition
tables and just keeps giving errors.
Can anyone give me guidance? Do I need to pass anything to the kernel
here?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
