Has anyone had any experience with the Promise
FastTrack UDMA 100 IDE Raid controller under Linux?

I'm currently in the process of setting up a server
and will be running Slackware 9.1 and have this
controller installed. I have been scouring the Net
(including Googling) to identify how to get Slack to
address the Raid 1 mirrored array. I found some
sites that say it should be under /dev/ataraid but I
don't show any devices listed although I do show a
/dev/ataraid. When putting the Slackware 9.1 CD and
booting I choose the ataraid.i kernel so it will
load the correct module but still can't figure out
how to mount the array to fdisk (fdisk
/dev/ataraid/d0px or whatever). Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

As always, thank you for your assistance.
