I have installed Norton Ghost 9.0 on my PC, with a P4C800E-Deluxe MB and
two Seagate Barraduda HD RAID 0, and was disapointed to see that the
sophisticated Recovery Disk System offered by Norton Gost 9.0 would not
regognize my two HD.

It appears that Norton Ghost is not compatible with the Promise 378 RAID
sub-system of the MB.

As anyone a solution for this problem ?
 
As the Ghost recovery disk is first booting, there should be a very short
prompt to "press F6 to load SCSI devices". After pressing F6, another
prompt will tell you to insert a floppy disk with the correct drivers. You
need to have prepared a floppy disk with those drivers.

I am assuming that your 2 drives are SATA drives and that Ghost just does
not have the drivers for your controller on the CD. The SCSI prompt is kind
of deceiving, as the SATA controllers as well as SCSI controllers fall in
the same category when it comes time to load the driver. My old Barracuda (1
Gb!) was a SCSI.

Hope this helps,

Bob
