[rhelv6-list] Suggest Hardware Raid Controller Card Reply

[Steve Allen]

You need to enter the BIOS at the point where it's displaying the Smart
Controller info, and set up your RAID there.  If you would rather do a
software RAID, you still need to go into the BIOS and set up the drives
as individual entities.  Once you have your drives set up in the BIOS,
the OS will see them.

HTH,
Steve
