I've been through this process once today, and I'm about to do it again. It's fairly simple, but I learned some things about the process of array-configuration and the use of Alienware Respawn, as well as Norton Ghost. Is there any...

That would make sense, Zelthian. It wouldn't even be that nVidia doesn't have a Linux driver (although they probably don't), but that such a driver isn't included in the installer package. In any case, I still want to de-RAID my...

Oops. It turns out that the current Linux kernel (2.6?) doesn't support software RAID configurations, and apparently the setup in the m9700 counts as a software RAID configuration. So now it's necessary for me to de-RAID it to use Linux,...

I did it! Well, not exactly. I decided to partition the array instead of deconstructing it. Everything is working nicely in windows, and I'm going to try Linux (SUSE 10.1) installation tomorrow, sometime. I decided to give Windows...

It turns out I'm not going to use Ghost to do this, because it wasn't doing a good job of cloning my main partition onto an external drive. I'm now trying Acronis True Image, because it allows me to make a full backup of my main...

I realized that there's a program I already have on my computer that will do this: Norton Ghost. It'll copy the entirety of one partition to another, including the MBR (master boot record). We'll see how it goes.

I want to de-RAID my AW Aurora m9700, but I want to copy every on the RAID 0 array to an external array so that I can work from that during the process, and then re-copy it all back on. In what way can I make a bootable copy of my C:\...

Here's what I'm going to do: 1. I'm going to back up the entirety of my RAID 0 array on my m9700 to an external hard drive. 2. I'm going to make sure that I can boot from that external hard drive. 3. I'm going to divide up all...

Yes! Kernel panicked is one of the errors I've seen! What does it mean?
