I just attempted to install the newest (3 December 2012 11.7.0.1013) RST package and the system freezes on boot.
I managed to squeak out of the lockup by running system repair/restore.
The system thinks it is booting off the 500GB and not the RAID array.
I switch out the 500gb from the boot lineup in BIOS and it refuses to boot at all.
How do I go about forcing the array to accept the MBR and boot like it should?hanged
Or should I do anything at all for it at all since it does run fine?
