Repeating the grub step did work then. The installer might perhaps offer to download defective packages from the net ... - I chose the swap space to reside on /dev/md1 (which is a RAID-1 from /dev/hda2 and /dev/hdb2). The partitioning tool accepted my choice but the swap space wasn't entered into the fstab. - The root filesystem was created on a logical volume, the PV for which is on /dev/md2 (RAID-1 from /dev/hda3 and /dev/hdb3). /boot was assigned to /dev/md0 (RAID-1 from /dev/hd?1). The partitioning tool understood this scheme only after I did everything in "the right order": Create the LVs, set / as mount point for the root LV, and _only_then_ set /boot as mount point for /dev/md0. When I assigned /boot before /, /boot was forgotten. - The network interfaces were correctly identified during the installation: The onboard e1000's as eth1 and eth2, the sk98lin as eth0 (IIRC), and the typhoon as eth3. So I configured eth1 as primary interface to the outside world, and it worked (see above: I could download the replacement grub package). But after rebooting into the installed system no interface was active (none of the necessary modules loaded, none entered into the /etc/modules file). I modprobed e1000 and with "ifup eth0=eth1" could continue with the installation. Now, looking at the installation logs, I suspect that this could have been caused by the failure to install discover. - The installation got _very_ slow because, after partitioning, the RAID-1 volumes started synchronizing. It might be better (and hopefully not too fragile) to create the RAID-1's as one-way mirrors first and later on add the second devices, thus starting off the sync process. - With /boot on RAID-1 it would be very nice and comfortable if the installer created a grub MBR and boot code on the second disk too ...
