sata raid on nforce4

[gariac]

Any chance there is a simple driver that can be uploaded during the solaris installation to use the onboard nforce4 raid, much like is done with a windows installation? I'll even beta this as my install is on a fresh system. The solaris installion without raid worked fine.

The other choice is dmraid, but this is an order of magnitude more complicated than my abilities. I have the gentoo iso with dmraid, but haven't figured out how to use it much beyond booting with it.

This is a dedicated solaris PC, so no dual boot will be required.

nforce4 raid support is not in the current release of solaris.
It will be in a subsequent update.

Anybody from NVIDIA who can comment on a schedule for Solaris NVRAID support? I'd be happy to volunteer and test any early alpha builds available as well.

Lack of NVRAID support from Solaris is the last remaining issue that stops me from being completely happy with my K8N-DL (4 SATA HDDs configured to use nvraid): So far, I still need a PATA HDD running the boot manager and my Solaris partition in non-RAID mode.

Many thanks in advance & best regards,

Andreas
