Hi

Can't get Puppy 4.3.1 to recognise a RAID setup

It loads, but does not list the drive(s)

I boot from the Puppy CD

I need it to move some files around in the registry on a Windows XP computer.

Not sure how to implement mdadm

Please help !

Newbie here (again)

I boot from a Puppy 4.3.1 CD to move some files around on a XP system with RAID

I have learnt from this forum that mdadm is needed

Not a clue how to implement this with a Puppy boot cd so that it will read RAID disks

Please help in plain English

Thanks

I have Puppy 4.3.1 on a CD which I boot from to read windows disks. Currently working on a computer with RAID setup and wanting to know how to implement mdadm or similar so that I can read and manipulate the data on the XP disk(s) Tried asking before on 2 occasions, but answers are not clear enough ...

Do I download mdadm onto a flash drive - boot from the Puppy CD - put in the flash drive - click on mdadm

You guessed I am a newbie
