RAID with Intel Corporation 82801GR/GH (ICH7 Family) SATA RAID Controller

First of all you have to install dmraid with

sudo aptitude install dmraid

.

Then load the necessary module, dm_mod with

sudo modprobe dm_mod

.

If you want your system to automatically load the module just edit the /etc/modules file with

sudo gedit /etc/modules

and add a new line with the name of the module you want to auto start, in this case "dm_mod".

You should find your raid disk under /dev/mapper/ as "isw_abc*"

Then create a directory under /media (or wherever else you like) with

sudo mkdir /media/raiddisk

.

Mount your disk with

sudo mount -t auto /dev/mapper/isw[your_disk] /media/raiddisk

. (if you want this to be done automatically then try /etc/fstab)

Then go to /media/raiddisk and you should see your files!
