Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal

Hello,

using the official i386 installer CD #1 in expert mode, I am unable to
create RAID devices using the menues. When I'm in the partitioner, I
create identical "physical RAID volume" layouts for my (two SATA) disks,
recognized as sd2 and sd3, then go to "Configure Software RAID", then
say "create MD device", enter appropriate parameters, then say "finish",
and then nothing happened. No RAID device is shown in the partition
list, and I cannot exit the partitioner because I "have no root device".

Btw, the disks should be moved to a different machine thereafter, which
would probably recognize them as sd0 and sd1... The numbering as sd2 and
sd3 comes from an (unused) on-board SCSI chip while these drives hang
off a PCI card.


Best,
--Toni++

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
  Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
  the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
  D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
  fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful


The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet. 

In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.

You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.

If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.

Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
