I followed the guide here
http://slackware.org.uk/slackware/sl...EADME_RAID.TXT to set up a RAID 0 install. I'm using generic kernel and a partition table like:
/md0 / /dev/sda3 /dev/sdb3
/md1 swap /dev/sda2 /dev/sdb2
/md2 /boot /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1
When I boot, the kernel loads, but then booting halts saying that the various MD devices have unknown partition tables, cannot find /mnt in /etc/fstab and cannot run /sbin/init and it gives the the chance to attempt to restore my system and carry on. If I just simply run:
mount -o ro /dev/md0 /mnt
exit
the system boots fine.
So, I am not sure what is going on, but something isn't right. does anyone have any idea?
Code:
root@darkstar:~# more /etc/fstab
/dev/md1 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/md0 / ext4 defaults 1 1
/dev/md2 /boot ext2 defaults 1 2
#/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,owner,ro,comment=x-gvfs-sho
w 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
Code:
root@darkstar:~# more /etc/mdadm.conf
ARRAY /dev/md2 UUID=9df43022:b7e58202:208cdb8d:9e23b04b
ARRAY /dev/md/1 metadata=1.2 UUID=40aaae38:7d79ea3c:e3ed0da4:6a522870 name=slac

ARRAY /dev/md/0 metadata=1.2 UUID=c5d98707:48d51195:5870cb6e:2b581a2b name=slac
kware:0
Code:
# LILO configuration file
# generated by 'liloconfig'
#
# Start LILO global section
# Append any additional kernel parameters:
append="root=/dev/md0 vt.default_utf8=1"
raid-extra-boot = mbr-only
boot = /dev/md2
LBA32
[... snip ...]
# Linux bootable partition config begins
image = /boot/vmlinuz
root = /dev/md0
initrd = /boot/initrd.gz
label = Linux
read-only
# Linux bootable partition config ends
Am I missing anything?
