The megaraid driver is hit and miss it works good with some controllers and
not with others ... there are improvements in newer kernels.
I would download the boot.iso from both centos-3.4 and centos-4.0 and see if
it recognizes the controller.
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/i386/images/
and
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/3/os/i386/images/
Boot from the ISO file and do:
linux rescue
When asked pick that the rescue image is at an http location use the below
information:
server: mirror.centos.org
path: centos/4/os/i386
Since there is no linux currently on there, skip the mounting question ...
fdisk -l
should tell you if the drives are recognized
-----------------
You could also download just the CD-1 for centos-3.x and centos-4.x from a
public mirror and boot from that, then do:
linux rescue
from the isolinux boot prompt as well ... if one works, then get the other
ISOs for that version.

Johnny,
Many many thanks for the info - The megaraid drivers for 3.3 and 3.4 do not
recognise the controller but 4 does so I'm downloading the ISOs -
Thanks again
Nigel
