I've got a nForce3 mobo that has both nVidia powered and Promise powered SATA RAID ports, but I don't have any SATA drives to test with. Just make sure that nForce SATA is enabled in the SCSI section of the kernel config.

Ok,i found out a solution for that.Grub installed succesfully.
Now my problem is that after rebooting i have an endless loop of GRUB GRUB GRUB...

At the stage of kernel installation i get a message like this: "mdadm not installed - raid arrays won't work".

I'll try enabling nForce Sata.

NoD, how did you get this going?  This is -exactly- what I wish to do, but haven't found a how-to for.  Would you be willing to share your experience?
