Hmm, my upgrade plans might have hit a snag here. We have a pair of servers
with Intel CA 810E boards that I was proposing to update (cheaply) with
either a Rosewill RC-209 *or* a SYBA SD-SATA2-2E2I RAID card and a couple of
SATA drives in a mirrored pair. All with the latest version of the fine
NuOnce Installer (whatever version is current after we get the parts.
If a could just find new small drives any more, this would be easier. I
don't quite see a pair of 150 or 250 GB drives for a dedicated DNS server.

Look at your BIOS, is there a way to disable hardware RAID?
Else select a single drive install, and RAID will be done in hardware.
Most servers with onboard RAID us FRAID (Fake Raid) and are slower than
using software RAID.
So best option is to 'Disable Hardware RAID'
