Did your installation-CD provide a driver for the megaraid-device?

On debian I had to use an installation CD spesifically made for
Dell-servers to be able to use the LSI MegaRaid controler as the
standard Debian installation would not do that. 

Once the basic operating system was installed, I could compile a new
kernel with the correct configuration and from there continue with the
building of the server.

      it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled 
      away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw
      the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the 
      books were opened; and another book was opened, which 
      is the book of life; and the dead were judged out of 
      those things which were written in the books,  
      according to their works."       Revelations 20:11,12
