I apologize in advance if this has been asked already. I'm a bit under the gun and would appreciate a quick answer... if there is one. I had an external RAID array hanging off of a SCO 5.0.4 box, and the OS drive (separate from the RAID array) took a crap. Now that I've reinstalled the OS, how do I get it to see the RAID array again without destroying the data that's on there? Thank you in advance for any help.

I presume you'll have to go through the usual mkdev hd procedure, making sure that you have the right drivers for your RAID installed, and take any options you can to avoid recreating partition tables, etc.
Hopefully it should be smart enough to recognise the existing setup on the disks. Sorry I can't offer any guarantees!
