Seems related to the above .. anybody shed some light on my plight?
I am running ubuntu 9.10
Re: RAID Grub rescue HELP
anybody have idea to make this work on RAID1 I wish to have grub2
menu to boot md126 (sda6/sdb6) ... this was working but something happened ... do I need to install grub2 again and how do I do that
with RAID1??? Do I need to use gpart that is raid aware? And if so what
do i specify?
install was done with alternate installer
at grub rescue>
help does not work ... ls
produces
(md124)(md1)(md126)(md127)(hd0) (hd0,7)(hd0,6)(hd0,5)(hd0,3)(hd0,1)(hd1)(hd1,7)(hd 1,6)(hd1,5)(hd1,1)
i want md126 to boot that was paired with (sda6/sdb6) md126 and has / ... (sda7/sdb7) md127 is /home
I also ran another util on the RAID drives
============================= Boot Info Summary: ==============================
=> Grub 2 is installed in the MBR of /dev/sda and looks for (md126)/boot/grub.
=> Grub 2 is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdb and looks for (md126)/boot/grub.
=> Windows is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdh
