Recently the OS drive died. Complete failure. I replaced the drive and installed Mint 10 Julia (because it fits on a CD). My BIOS sees the RAID drive as usual, but Mint does not see the RAID drive at all.
What's worse, it did at first. For about a day. Now it does not see it at all. Hmmm. Grain of salt time. My wife says it did, but I don't recall...
Following directions in another thread, I've run the following commands with these results:

While I don't pretend to understand all of that output (I'm a newbie), I do see a distinct lack of references to the 2 TB drive that is seen by the BIOS.
Where do I go from here?
