Hardware RAID controllers? Bah, nuttin' to it. Except with a boot LUN
defined over 2TB in size. Currently distributed GRUB (GRand Unified
Bootloader) has issues with boot disks over 2TB and EFI based BIOS.
LILO
can do the 2TB+ but is a bit cantankerous.

Curious as to what controller it is. Huh?

I might also be convinced to show up.
