RAID with SiI3152 ?
I've read the wiki article about FAKE RAID, so I suppose it should work
(as noted in the wiki) with the Silicon Image 3152 chipset.
My card is ( a cheap one ) a Best Connect Sata/Raid card, with the above mentioned chipset.
The system's BIOS is detecting the previously created RAID1 array, but linux does not.
If I do
# modprobe dm_mod
and then
# dmraid -ay
it returns simply "No RAID disks"
According to the wiki, this chipset should normally work.
Am I missing something?

Re: RAID with SiI3152 ?
Suspect driver issue or faulty hardware. If all the right drivers are loaded you should see atleast one raid set. (If you've set up the raid device ofcourse.)
Any success?

Check your dmesg before and after modprobing.
But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain - that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to exist.

The Raid Device is created in the controller's BIOS. Right modules are loaded (sata_sil).
Dmesg doesn't show anything, no raid arrays shown there, only my disks as /dev/sdx, /dev/sdy.
Same thing with the latest Arch install/live CD, the latest Gentoo Livecd.
