Always another hitch dep't. Or rather, always the *next* hitch*, because getting these things done is simply hitch after hitch.
I want to run the two drives in a RAID 1 configuration (mirroring), and the system BIOS has allowed me to create a "virtual disk" showing both drives as one single drive, in hardware.
Unfortunately the first choice of operating systems, Centos, does not recognize the hardware disk controller's wishes and wants to install to the physical disks. If we were lazy, we'd just give up and forget the RAID idea. But we're not, so the project stops for the day with more research is needed.
I expect it will be a case of getting the controller's drivers into the mix as a part of the installation process.
