raid1 and lilo second disk doesn't boot



Hello,

I have two scsi discs in a raid1 setup:

md1: sda1 and sdb1
md2: sda2 and sdb2

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md2              880M  452M  384M  55% /
/dev/md1               13M  2.7M   10M  21% /boot

The systems boots fine when sda or both disks are attached.  When sda
is not attached the raid doesn't boot from sdb.  I get LI 01 01 01 01 01...

When I boot from floppy with only the second disk attached everything
works ok.

schamper:/home/rudy# cat /etc/lilo.conf
lba32
boot=/dev/md1
raid-extra-boot=/dev/sda,/dev/sdb
root=/dev/md2
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
image=/vmlinuz
label = Linux
read-only

I used mdadm to setup the raid and have raid support compiled into the
kernel (NOT as module).

What did I do wrong in my lilo.conf?

Thank you ever so much.
