no, I was testing dmraid so I put it *into* RAID mode (I can't press
ctrl-I to get into the raid otherwise) it was in AHCI mode from a day or
two earlier when I was discussing with you a different issue with
software raid ...

ok, I'll bera that in mind

Yes, I can't say that I really want this machine to end up with dmraid
on it, I will most likely stick with software raid on machines that
don't have "proper" RAID, but I'm happy to help with testing ...

I did see that happen when I first installed
The last few days worth of rawhide haven't been bootable (even to get
into anaconda) for me, with or without raid, but I'll try dmraid again
once that is fixed
Thanks.
