Is it possible(yet) to set up a hardware|bios RAID1 up with Silicon Image Sil3114 (SATA)?

I've google'd and searched these forums, but found nothing but how to set up a software RAID1(via /dev/md*).

In the bios I've selected RAID1, but gentoo sees a /dev/sda and /dev/sdb = no RAID1 w/ out software raid'ing.

Thanks in advance to anyone that can provide some help...

Setting up hardware RAID with that controller is impossible, because the chip isn't a hardware RAID controller. http://linux.yyz.us/sata/faq-sata-raid.html
Use dmraid drivers for BIOS-based software RAID if you want to dual-boot, otherwise just use the native sofware RAID (md).
