You need to build a custom  kernel with the following:

# Compaq Intelligent Disk Array Controller
#
controller      ida0    at isa? bio irq ? vector idaintr
disk            id0     at ida0 drive 0
disk            id1     at ida0 drive 1
disk            id2     at ida0 drive 2
disk            id3     at ida0 drive 3
disk            id4     at ida0 drive 4
disk            id5     at ida0 drive 5


You can just add this to the Generic kernel then config and build it.

Then you need to gzip and add it to the kernel boot floppy.

It will then recognize the array.

Very nice hardware.
