Karl, you can help him in English i will translate, to spanish for him (will do my best effort)
regards, Guillermo.
Is he trying to establish a hardware-based RAID 10 on his Dell Poweredge server? That looked like part of what he wanted to do. If so, and he is using 4 disks, take two of them and create RAID 1, and do the same with the other 2, then when those are created, choose new RAID, and select raid 0, select both RAID 1's as members, and once done, he will have RAID 10.
That's how we did it on our existing Poweredge servers, -we also are able to monitor them using Nagios and a custom script we wrote that works with the AFACLI tool, which I can send you the download info for.
But let me know, maybe I read his post slightly wrong in spanish...

Karl I am not good at raid, i have never worked with it nor with x64 servers so, i will translate his email here for you.
" I have Dell POwer Edge 2800 server, First, Is it possible to install centos and wich version? x86_64? Well talking about installing, i can install but I need to enable RAiD of the disk in raid 10. how can i do to make CENTOS recognize me the four disk in raid 10...? thanks in advance ... Roberto"
Ask him if he has a hardware RAID card : )
If not, we can walk him through the software RAID method.
If he has a 64-bit server, he can use the x86_64 centos ISO's, and if he doesn't he will get a screen message saying "this machine does not support long mode" or something very similar. In which case he can put the 32-bit Centos ISO's on there.
Once we know if he has hardware RAID SCSI card or not, we can walk him through the disk setup, I will dig up the right FAQ for this and send it, along with my own notes...

Tienes tarjeta RAID hardware?
If not, we can walk him through the software RAID method.
si no tendremos que ir por el metodo software

Si tienes un server 64 bit, podremos instalar x86_64 de otro modo veras una pantalla diciendo "Esta maquina no soporta modo ensanchado", en cuyo caso tendremos que usar 32 bit.

Necesitamos saber si tienes tarjeta RAID SCSI.
