Installing Redhat 7.3

I can't seem to get the hardware to control the raid when installing RH7.3. Does anyone know the trick?

Thanks in advance,
Tom

I am having a similar problem with the Megaraid controller. If there is a solution I please post.

Were you able to configure the RAID volumes from the RAID Bios?

Are drivers for the RAID card installed?

This is my problem.
I can set up the hardware RAID just fine and the RedHat 7.3 installation recognized the logical drives set up by the RAID BIOS. My problem is when I boot the system for the first time after performing the installation after the RedHat Megaraid driver is initialized it times out when searching for the logical drives. I have been able to install Red 7.2 on the same system with no problems but I can not get past the Megaraid error on with the 7.3 boot sequence
