Hi guys have a LANPARTY UT nF4 SLI-DR

Have been to the DFI website and downloaded
Revision 1.1

Driver RAID Driver
OS Others
File Sil3114_LinuxRAID.ZIP

Description RAID Driver for Sil3114 under Linux OS.

I am running widows and the help file recommends:

If running windows: use "rawrite.exe united_6514.img A:"

So I have copird both Rawrite and the sii6514.img to c drive and running the following cmd line:

rawrite.exe united_sii6514.img A:

doesn't work so have tried:

rawrite -f united_sii6514.img -d A:

Both come up with file can't be found even though the image is there?

Guess what I am trying to say is I can't extract too floppy so if any one can point out where I am going wrong or supply a Linux driver for the above board. It would be much appreciated! :)

Reason I am doing this is because I wan to load ex server and the base O/s is linux and it can't see my dual SATA drives as it doesn't have the drivers!

Hi,

I'd imagine that the reason you can't run rawrite under Windows is because the executable is stored in a location that isn't in your path, so you need to use cd ( as in the change directory command at a command prompt) to get to the correct directory first. Alternatively you could download rawritewin which is a GUI version of it or use dd as described here to write the image to floppy under Linux
