|I am trying to install SL4 on Dell Dimension 9200 with Intel 82801 
|(ICH8) Raid controller. Not sure how to proceed.
|
|I have configured RAID1 array using the built-in Intel config utility (I 
|have two physical drives, 320G each). When I try to run the 4.5 
|installer, it sees two separate drives rather than the array. I do not 
|want to create the software RAID, and I am not 100% sure what LVM is.

LVM, the logical volume manager, is optional.  You don't
have to use it.

I know that on newer systems, we found we had
to either use 4.7 or 5.x to get RAID support,
especially with SATA.
