you have to configure a megaraid card so it knows what to do with your
disks, either create a raid or multiple raids, or configure it for
all-disks-as-jbod. this /can/ be done with the bios, but its really
annoying to use, I generally put a copy of megacli on a USB stick and
boot my installation media with 'single' to run it, otherwise the linux
kernel doesn't see them.
