I user Gigabyte 7VXRP mainboard. It has on board promise ATA Raid/ATA 133 controller. I set in BIOS to user Raid. The chip model reported from lspci is PDC20276. 00:0f.0 RAID bus controller: Promise Technology, Inc. PDC20276 IDE (rev 01) I configure raid 0 on it with 2 80G-HDD. I use red hat 9. I install it on 40 G hdd (hda). The kernel version is 2.4.20-9. I manually insert ataraid and pdcraid module. Then I can create 160G on it everything is OK. However, when I mount partition on it, there is an error message: "Invalid ioctl". Why this error message is displayed? Does it effect to system stability? Before I install redhat 9, I used this system with redhat 7.3 and driver from promise. During install, it said that I have to initialize raid. So, my data is lost. If I upgrade kernel (using redhat rpm), is there any chance that my data will lost? Thanks, Theewara
