[CentOS] HD/Partitions/RAID setup

    I have a machine that's been configured as follows using its BIOS tools:

    SATA-0 is a 160 GiB drive used as boot
    SATA-1 and SATA-2 are both 500 GiB drives and were configured as a 
RAID-1 in BIOS.

    When the system boots up, BIOS reports 1 160 GiB SATA drive, and 1 
Logical volume as RAID-1 ID#0 500 GiB, which is what I would expect it 
to report, as the two drives are now raided together.

    However, when I boot into the Centos installer and I get to 
configuring the partitions, it lists both sda, sdb, and sdc as 
available.  Both sdb and sdc are 500 GiB.  I would've expected to only 
see one drive for the RAID setup.

    Can someone explain why I see both drives and how am I supposed to 
configure them?  I thought if I configured the BIOS to raid them, I 
wouldn't have to do anything in the OS other than to format the thing 
and expect it to work.
