It depends on the chip, if it is a RAID-ONLY chip, in my experience with
ICH5, I could use the disk in either mode, however, chips such as
promise's ata/100 raid controller only let you use one drive in a degraded
array if I recall correctly. Depends on the chip.

Thanks for the info. I don't actually want to use RAID, real or
otherwise, on this machine. I'm more interested in just making
the system recognize the two IDE channels that the "raid" chip
controls, and allowing me to use them for a boot harddrive.
I've attached the complete output from lspci.
Adaptec rather :)

I have a Gigabyte mother board that has second and third IDE channels
that are controlled by an onboard RAID chip. The chip is a
Gigabyte deal I think. In the bios, I can configure the RAID
controller to simply view the channels as IDE/ATA ( the chip only
supports harddrives ). I moved my harddr
