It's not a good idea to use raid service provide by hpt370.
/usr/src/linux-2.4/Documentation/Configure.help :
Support for IDE Raid controllers
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ATARAID
[...]
Note, that Linux does not use the Raid implementation in BIOS, and
the main purpose for this feature is to retain compatibility and
data integrity with other OS-es, using the same disk array. Linux
has its own Raid drivers, which you should use if you need better
performance.
