Bug#488809: installation-reports: lenny installer beta 3 doesn't propose software raid configuration
Package: installation-reports
Severity: normal
-- Package-specific info:
Boot method: CD

Machine: Fujitsu-Siemens Primergy Econel 100 S2
Partitions: <df -Tl will do; the raw partition table is preferred>

Comments/Problems:
The installer doesn't propose software raid configuration.
Only Full disk usage, LVM support, LVM encrypted and Manual are proposed.
In the Manual section, no RAID configuration is available.
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
and ideas you had during the initial install.>
I was trying to install Lenny with Software RAID 1
During first installation, I wasn't asked for RAID configuration.
I decided to install on a single disk (with 2 partitions - one for /boot
and another for a LVM).
First installation ended perfectly, but on a single disk (/dev/sda) and no RAID
Then (from http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/238 ) :
modify partitions types of /dev/sda as FD (Linux RAID autodetect)
copy partitions on /dev/sdb
create raid level 1 with /dev/sda missing and /dev/sdb present
stop following the tutorial and rebooted.
trying to reinstall from CD
During second installation, I selected manual partition and the 'Software RAID'
configuration was proposed.
The installer work pretty well, allowing to erase everything I created before.
I could properly create new RAID devices, and use them as I wanted
(one for /boot and the other as a LVM volume)
Installation ended perfectly
I've used this workaround on two differents systems (same as twins).
I've not tried other system as for now.
I think that modifying partitions type as FD could be enough for the installer
to propose Software RAID configuration, but I've no time to try now.
Why doesn't Lenny propose RAID software as an option (like LVM) ?
I think Etch did.
