Question about d-i etch beta 2 capabilities
Evening, all
[Please do forgive me if this is the wrong forum to ask this question.]
I'm attempting to install etch beta 2 and my initial, "do it all as
completely as possible" disk partitioning scheme resulted in (a) the
installer complaining and (b) a non-booting system.
Before I carry on and build the system up from a simpler scheme,
however, I thought I'd check that what I'm attempting is neither
unsupported nor currently broken. I'm aware of the.first beta 2
erratum, and that it might be the cause of my problem (b).
So, please could I ask this of any knowledgeable persons here present
- are the following two partitioning schemes achieveable
/from/within/the/installer/?
1) hda and hdc are both 80 gig Maxtors
hda1 and hdc1: RAID1 physical volumes, backing md0 (256 Mb)
hda2 and hdc2: RAID1 physical volumes, backing md1 (10Gb+)
md0: /boot
md1: /
2) Same as #1, except that md1 is specified as being an LVM physical
volume (for /, /var, /usr, etc.)
Should either, or both, of these schemes work?
Many thanks,
Jonathan
