Hello - I have an existing system (AMD64) that I'd like to configure for |
| 2 |
'dual-Boot'. It sits on SATA RAID0 and I have prepared a partition for it. |
| 3 |
Trouble is, the only Linux driver ( SiS 180) I can find is 'source' and all |
| 4 |
Distro's that I have tried so far (a considerable number) only recognise two |
| 5 |
IDE disks. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
I now put my trust in Gentoo, hoping somebody can confirm it will be able to |
| 8 |
support the set-up 'out-of-the-box'. Otherwise, I'd be most happy for any |
| 9 |
good suggestions that anyone can think of. |

In the event that I must compile the driver myself, I would like to know if |
| 12 |
it neccessarily has to be done on a 64bit system? |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Only now,I notice that SiS have updated their info on the site - they now |
| 15 |
imply that SiS drivers are more or less built in the kernel after 2.4.x - is |
| 16 |
this correct? Suse, Mandriva, Ubuntu have all failed me lately! |
