http://www.murty.net/ataraid/ <---very good documentation, used a lot from
here. I think this is going to be your biggest help.
I did the same thing, my / is on my ata 133 onboard raid card. my fstab looks
like this:
/dev/ataraid/d0p2 / auto
defaults,noatime,nodiratime,notail 0 1
but i also had to add a kernel command line option.
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only
# restricted
# alias=1
append="ide3=0xd400,0xd002 ide4=0xb800,0xb402"
- From /proc/pci
RAID bus controller: Promise Technology, Inc. PDC20276 IDE (rev 1).
IRQ 3.
Master Capable. Latency=32. Min Gnt=4.Max Lat=18.
I/O at 0xd400 [0xd407].
I/O at 0xd000 [0xd003].
I/O at 0xb800 [0xb807].
I/O at 0xb400 [0xb403].
I/O at 0xb000 [0xb00f].
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xd5800000 [0xd5803fff].
Also, I compiled my own kernel, so I made sure I had all the ata raid drivers
built into my kernel.
