According to the manual you can boot from an array, at least in red hat 9,
so I gues it will also go in Fedora.
Make sure you update your Fedora first to avoid the problems I'm having now.

I'm going to be installing a similar 3ware 9000 series card in a few days.
I'm interested in one of your side questions. Can you boot off of an array
in Fedora?
Thanks,
Robert
