Trying to Install Backup Disk for home drive



Hello,
I have been trying to install a backup SATA drive, /dev/sdb, for my IDE home drive. My home drive is /dev/hdb. /dev/hda is for Windows. I have a /dev/sda SATA backup with software for Windows.

I bought a HighPoint RocketRaid 1520 board to back up Linux . I installed it. I dual boot Windows XP2 and Redhat Fedora 5. Windows saw the drive and put the icon about it being new hardware in the bottom window bar. When I tried to boot Linux it failed. I recently lost my Linux home drive due to what I think was a partitioning error. So, I shutdown and took the board out. Linux booted okay. So, I have been looking to find out how to install the HighPoint RocketRaid 1520. What if I install the 1520 in Windows, will that take care of the bios for Linux? I have search the Fedora Forum and Linux Questions and I have learned that the HighPoint driver doesn't work in Linux. I have also learned I should use the RedHat driver
but I don't know where to get it.
