This Compaq 1850R server is running RAID 5 in hardware, using a
Compaq 221 controller. /dev/md14 appears to be the boot location.
With hardware RAID, the drives appear to the OS as logical devices
as specified in the RAID setup, so that the OS doesn't even know
that there is RAID out there.
/dev/md14 does exist, along with a zillion other /dev/mdxx's.
Here's lilo.conf, but remember that it won't load with the "lilo"
command.
