RE: Booting DAC960 Raid



Title: RE: Booting DAC960 Raid

Hi,
I stated the board works, fault tolerant also.  I upgraded the firmware to the supported version.  The issue now is booting to it.  How can I go about copying a running system from bootable drive to non bootable drive, that I want to be bootable? 

Am I on the right track:  I create a bootable partition on the new drive.  Create the FS using mke2fs command.  The drive should now be bootable.  If I don't copy the os over I think I would get a 'operation system not found" error or similar.  Instead I get nothing.  Is there something I need to do to the MBR of that drive?

Thanks,
Jeff Hopkins

Jeff,


There are two versions of the Mylex DAC960 with slight differences. The
newer one is well supported in Linux, but the older is not supported at
all. It's a hardware/firmware issue.

Check your board.
