I'm trying to get kubuntu to mount a ntfs raid-5 partition the Intel SATA Raid controller (not the SI controller) on an Intel 975xbx. First fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Disk /dev/sdc: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk /dev/sdc doesn't contain a valid partition table
Disk /dev/sdd: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk /dev/sdd doesn't contain a valid partition table
editing the fstab with the line
/dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1 ntfs nls=utf8,umask=0222,uid=0,gid=0,auto,rw,nouser 0 0
doesn't work.
So next I installed dmraid
sudo apt-get install dmraid
and everything appears to install correctly
Next I try, dmraid -s

I've searched all over and haven't been able to find anything definitive on how to get this to work. Surely I can't be the only person in the world trying to do this with a 975xbx, could I?
