Andrew,

IT8212 driver fails to recognize RAID0 setup. The driver is built in
as module (it8212).

The drives are WDC 120gigers on primary channel as master/slave
configured for RAID0.

>From dmesg:

The board is Gigabyte GA-7NNXP.

Under mm3 kernel, RAID0 was working when using the now dropped iteraid driver.
