yay – got an install of Ubuntu 7.04 on my RAID5 with LVM with RAID1 /boot. Not only that, it’s booted – twice. Special.
Even plugged in my USB RAID1 array and managed to get it to mount… and am now importing photos into the f-spot store on it. Yay.
Lets see if it survives any amount of time…
I dunno how you’ve manage to blow your Feisty installs up so often Stewart, I’ve been running it on a couple of desktops and a laptop for a while now (pre-beta release) and it’s been working well so far.
I’m not using RAID-5 anywhere though, RAID-1 at the most, so that could be it..
neither do I really… it’s an interesting one.
but any combination of RAID, LVM, non ext3 anywhere usually leads to interesting times.
installing the bootloader seems to be the hard part of the install.
this time i managed to get lilo on there (AFTER having manually configured the root device, rebuilt initramfs, run lilo) and am happy.
Hey MacPlusG3 !
I’m facing some of the interesting times you talk about … upgrade from edgy to feisty, root on soft raid + lvm2 volumes, impossible to install lilo…. Google is not really my friend here, except if you are my saver ;-)
Can you elaborate on your solution ? I read “(AFTER having manually configured the root device, rebuilt initramfs, run lilo)” and find this way to short for me:-/
TIA,
