names to hard disks which order?

[gettons]

Hi guys,

shortly, I have 2 sata disk attached to motherboard and one on a promise pci sata controller.
Everything gone well, all disks recognized by last stable gentoo.
I am going to create 3 raid 1 for swap /home and / on 2 disks of those and I would like to create such raids on two different controller of course :

1 disk on sata mobo controller
and
1 disk on pci sata controller


USUALLY Linux gives names in orders as he find them, and I could take the vol_id and try to boot with only one disk for 3 times to discover the vol_id .
But what if I have no access to this machine?

I mean, is there a way to find and to be sure that sda ( for example ) and sdb are the two on the mobo and sdc is the only one on the pci controller?

Is there a way to see where sd* is attached on my computer, throught which controller ?



Thanks in advance.

Have I missed something and you can create a RAID over some partitions(I'd guess no)? Either your talking bout something LVM(or - trendy andy - ZFS) or I totally missed some interesting functionality...
