Perhaps I was not clear on subject. Of course it works with nvraid (it
is stated in readme file) and I know it is works in general (I am using
it with embedded Promise controller on A7V). The question was - is there
any support (or planned or in development or...) for ULi which is in
fact part of ULi 1735 southbridge. If there is no - how I, as the owner
of mentioned ULi controller can help? And finally is there way or, once
again plans, to support RAID5 introduced there and in nVidia chipsets?
As a note: as I understood - this motherboard (A8R32-MVP) can even boot
from RAID5, despite it is as somebody noted - shraid (soft/hard
raid ;-))
