<div>I have an existing Ubuntu installation on a SATA disk and I want to add a 500GB mirrored RAID onto it for storage. I have two SATA ports on my board and then two that are seperate for a Promise FastTrak SATA RAID controller. I installed the 500GB drives on the Promise controller and set up the mirrored RAID. Now when I attempt to boot Ubuntu with the RAID controller turned on I get the following messages:
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>ata3: disabling port</div>
<div>md: md0: raid array is not clean -- starting background reconstruction</div>
<div>madm: /dev/md0 has been started with 1 drive (out of 2)</div>
<div>sde: assuming drive cache: write through</div>
<div>sde: assuming drive cache: write through</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If I disable the onboard RAID the server boots with no problem. Has anybody tried this setup before?<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Donovan Niesen </div>
