Software RAID 1 GRUB

solokron · 05-04-2009, 08:11 PM

I just installed CentOS 5.3 (NetInstall) with software raid 1 MD devices. md0-md4. Drives sda and sdb. OS installs great. Boots up great. The caveat, if I go into the bios and disable disk drive 0 to test its functionality, it boots to the second drive and sits at:

GRUB _

I tested this on another server, same thing. What am I missing?

Did you install grub on both drives in the raid 1 array?

The procedure for doing so is outlined in section 6 here: http://www.howtoforge.com/software-r...debian-etch-p2

Good call. You'd think the installer would have done that.

I'll give it a shot.
