You have to put the drivers for your sata on a floppy, CD, DVD or USB thumb
drive and install them before you can see the partition information. There
is a selection to "install drivers". Use it please.

I did a clean install Vista on my raid drive, no problem installing the Sil
3112 raid drivers at the start of the install. I did run into a problem
installing applications that I need. They would not install on Vista and
replacement software for Vista is not available.
I decided to reinstall Windows XP Pro along with all the applications I need
and then do the UPGRADE thing. The install program did not see the raid
drive, drivers not yet installed, and therefore it could not find the
Windows XP Pro and therefore it disabled the UPGRADE option. :-( The next
window allowed me to install the driver and the raid drive magically
appeared but still it would only allow a clean install and you could not go
back after installing the driver.
I don't see why the install program can't ask for any drivers you have,
raid, scsi, sata, etc., before it goes searching the drives for the
operating systems. THIS IS A BUG.
I know I can probably use Partition Magic to move my operating system to an
old IDE drive, then I can maybe upgrade to Vista, then if Partition Magic
still works move things back to the raid drive. This is not something I am
going to try.

I dont see how. After clicking the arrow to install vista I get the message
"Setup could not get information about the disks on your computer" hitting ok
takes me back to the initial install vista screen. There is no oportunity to
tell the install to look for my (sata) raid drivers.
if I unplug the satas then the install does move on to the next section and
it installs to a partition on my standard ide drive, but then because there
were no sata's I dont get the chance to install sata raid drivers. (it will
later only show two empty sata, with no indication of the raid 0 volume)
