RAID1 install fails
With the sarge-i386-netinst.iso of 2004-05-28, a RAID1
install fails for me. I said the installer to use both
disks (hda 8.4 and hdb 8.6 GB in size, maybe that is the
problem?). I let the installer automatically partition the
RAID device (all in one partition) and get the error
message:
[!!] Partition disks
Failed to create a file system
The ext3 file system creation in partition #1 of RAID1 device #0
failed.
The messages on vt3 are:
/sbin/tune2fs: Not a directory while while trying to open /dev/md/0/part1
Couldn't find valid file system superblock.
mke2fs 1.35 (28-Feb-2004)
Could not stat /dev/md/0/part1 --- Not a directory
This is reproducable with both 2.4 and 2.6 and with both
EXT3 and XFS (the latter is what I really want...).
Note 1: I did not try LVM, nor expert mode.
Note 2: Non-RAID1 installation on either disk works
perfectly.
