freebsd stable - Mar 2005 - installing FreeBSD on partition of a SATA Intel 865 raid0 volume

How do you setup FreeBSD on a partition of a raid0 volume? I downloaded
FreeBSD 5.3, then made a 60 GB partition in my raid volume, and then went to
boot from the CD. It did not see any raid volumes, it just sees two HDs.

FreeBSD does not recognize the Adaptec HostRAID metadata so you will not
be able to use RAID volumes configured with the HostRAID BIOS. You can use
atacontrol to create FreeBSD software RAIDs, however.
