Comments/Problems:
Neither of the boot loaders (grub/lilo) could be installed on the RAID
Devices. As a workaround I did the following (I hope I remember correctly):
* Started a shell from the installer after the boot loader install failed.
* did a: #chroot /target
* Manually installed grub from the install cd with dpkg -i /<complete path to
the grub deb package>
* Created the grub directory in /boot/
* Created there a device.map: #echo "(hd0) /dev/md0" > device.map
* Did a update-grub to get a menu.lst in boot/grub/
* Ran grub and manually installed grub to both HDD's:
root (hd0,0)
setup (hd0)
root (hd1,0)
setup (hd1)
* After that I exited from the chroot and the shell
* Continued with the installer
* Reboot worked
After rebooting the networkcard wasn't recognized, so I had to install e1000
per hand.
I had to do a little fine tuning to locales and install reiserfsprogs (which
somehow didn't get installed), but besides that everything worked pretty
well.
After installing discover the networkcard is now recognized automatically.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Claus Grill
