[ follow-ups to netbsd-users, please ]

hi,

i am looking for a motherboard for a new NetBSD production server.  it
should support IDE (pseudo-)raid, ecc ram support is a plus, 1 cpu is
enough.

what i am curious about is the IDE raid device, can one configure two
mirror volumes from 4 disks (2+2) with these?

            ,-- channel 1 -- disk A1 - disk B1
           /                   ||        ||
 IDE raid <                  mirror    mirror
           \                   ||        ||
            `-- channel 2 -- disk A2 - disk B2

anyone can recommend some mobo with NetBSD supported IDE raid which is
capable of doing this and matches listed needs (ecc ram support
(optional), 1 cpu, onboard eth/graphics/sound are not neccessary)?

thanks,
regards,
