I was trying the Net-Install.iso posted earlier
with similar problems.
The install started fine. I was able to
partition my drives:
2 x 1.2Gb IDE
Partioned
Part 1
/boot 64Mb
Part 2
/
1100Mb
Part 3
Swap 150Mb
All set to type fd. I did have some trouble
creating the Raid (espically after many attempts at installing), so I switched
to the console and stop any existing md drives and recreated using
mdadm.
Everything installed fine after that. But I
could not get grub to setup on (hd0) or (md0).
The only way I have been able to get this to work,
is set my Part 1 to type 82 on both drives, mount the part 1 on drive 1 to /boot
and set the other to /boot/bkup.
Grub would then install, and I can now
boot.
My thought was to copy the contents of boot to the
bkup folder and emergency boot from a floppy to get the boot loader installed on
the second drive.
Haven't tried yet though.
I want to web/email server with the drives software
Raided (mirror). I will be using 2 x 9Gb SCSI drives for this, but should
I look at a 500Mb or 1.2Gb IDE drive to hold /boot and swap?
Thanks
Joe
