Désolé, le message est en (mauvais anglais) mais je sonde tout azimut pour trouver des personnes susceptibles de m'aider dans la configuration de la ga7n400pro2 et surtout de son XXXX gigaraid IT8212F incorporé à la carte mère. Avis aux pros de la configuration sous linux. Merci à vous ! (mail en retour apprécié Merci.)

Hi,
I have some trouble with gigaraid controller on my motherboard ga7N400pro.
My hardware is :
---------------
GA 7N400pro, AMD XP 2400+
1048 MO DDR3200
2 ATA100 UDMA5 Maxtor, with egal capacity : 30 go
Info +:
Motherboard brings 4 IDE :
- "special NFORCE" IDE for ATAPI CDROM (mine is Pioneer DVD)
- NFORCE IDE for ATA DRIVE
- Tw0 IT8212F (or ATARAID) IDE for raid 0, 1, 0+1, JBOD or normal IDE function
IT8212 bios setup :
--------------------
Setup array type as : NORMAL (No array, Normal IDE controller config)
MOTIVATION :
------------
I have 2 Hard Disk. Like my older config with asus a7v133, I want to switch windows and linux.
I want to work with LINUX software RAID too, not hardware. Software Raid with linux is more flexible,
in my mind and situation :]
GENERAL PROCEDURE :
------------------
Before, I make a first install with my 2 OS in order to attach later my system into ATARAID IDE.
In this first install, I can insert ATARAID driver in my kernel 2.4.22. The driver is ITERAID.o module.
(In a first install, with kernel 2.6.1, i encounter trouble with ITERAID.o, which don't build.)
STEPS in my Installation :
------------------------
Before, I make a first install with my 2 OS in order to insert later my system into ATARAID IDE.
Boot manager is Lilo, with [Windows - Linux-2.4.22. - Linux-2.4.22.ITE] switch.
Windows 2000 is on my DISK 2.
Linux mdk 9.2 is on my DISK 1.
DISK 1 and DISK 2 share two ext2fs partition for Linux software raid0, with same size.
There is 2 swap file with same size on DISK 1 and DISK 2 too.
First install is made with my onboard nforce IDE. Disk 1(linux) is master and Disk 2(w2k), on the same cable, is slave.
I download Kernel 2.4.22.10 (like my distro mdk 9.2), setup, install NVIDIA_nforce-1.0-0261.src.rpm
and compile the custom Kernel. Reboot, dmesg output, reboot, dmesg output. Not fine tuning, but works !.
I build iteraid.o for mandrake, test it like procedure from Mark Lu (ITE RAIDEXPRESS 133 MDK 9.0 Installation Guide)
and insert it in "lib/modules/"mycustomKernel"/drivers/SCSI".
Finally, I type :
# mkinitrd -f --preload scsi_mod --preload sd_mod --with=iteraid /boot/initrd"mycustomkernel".img "mycustomkernel"
With this command, iteraid.o is loaded in first boot time.
I don't have any major error with these steps.
I don't edit any config.file, like fstab or raidtab. No-place, i specify volume like sda or sdb. I do ? No, in my mind...
I reboot, ultim dmesg output verification (it's ok).
Finaly, I halt. I attach my 2 ATA DISK into ATARAID IDE. DISK 1 is master on ATARAID IDE 1, DISK 2 is alone but with slave jumper ON
into ATARAID IDE 2 (slave jumper : don't matter ? DISK 2 is alone, it will be master by default, no?)
BOOT ISSUE :
---------
I reboot. I see the controller RAIDExpress133 in my boot screen and my disks are detected like SCSI disk.
The partition check is very long (> 120 seconds !! :( , why ? ) and issue is fatal.
I don't know what is wrong. FAQ, FORUM support on ITERAID is very weak and i don't find good tips or
happy experience in google search.
Anyone can diagnose and explain why and what is wrong ? Many thanks ?
