I want to set up a mySQL server using ES Version 4
64-bit AMD64 operating system.
My hardware consists of the following:
ASROCK 939NF4G-SATA2 motherboard
AMD 64 3200+ CPU
1 GIG PC3200 RAM
2 WD800 SATA2 80 GIG Hard Drives
I want to use RAID 0 so I set up the BIOS to mirror
the two SATA drives. However when I load the ES4 64BITsystem it asks me if I
would like to load device drivers for the hard drives. On selecting ADD
DEVICE I am presented with the standard device drivers that come with ES4.
I selected nVidia nForce SATA controllers (sata_nv) and the system loads the
driver. Another driver that looked promising was the nForce Ethernet Driver
(forcedeth). Everything appears normal for the next several screens until
we get to the create partition. Then the following error message
appears:
An error has occurred - no valid devices were
found on which to create new file systems. Please check your hardware for the
cause of this problem.
I decided to load Windows XP to see if the hardware
actually worked. The disk supplied with the motherboard allowed me to crerate a
driver diskette for the SATA drives. Windows XP HOME loaded without
any problems, the RAID 0 worked, and the ethernet card also worked. (first
time!!!!)
My question is there a linux ES4 driver available
for the hard drives and eternet card. I have checked a lot sites with no
luck.
Thank you
