Jaja immer diese ATA Raids

Nachdem ich ja schon lang nicht bei Guru aufgetaucht bin, mal wieder ein freundliches RTFM an einen Newbie

http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/ATA-RAID-HOWTO/
Edit: Da war flinx schneller
Und das README im Treiberpaket hilft einem ja auch "nicht" weiter:

[INSTALLATION]
Extract the contents of the TGZ file on to a formatted floppy disk.
Label the disk "FastTrak Driver Disk".
2.1 To install the FastTrak Series Linux Driver into an EXISTING SYSTEM:

1.) For RHF upgraders ONLY, append parameters

2.) Get driver "ft.o" from FastTrak Driver Disk by issuing commands :
# gzip -dc modules.cgz > modules.cpio
# cpio -idumv < modules.cpio
(this loads the Modules from the subdirectories which you need)
