Re: Debian can not boot from RAID-1

[Yuriy Kuznetsov <yuriy.kuznetsov@gmail.com>]

Hi Justin,

This is the problem: system does not boot at all; it goes as far as DRAC check and stopped; it does not even try to load the kernel.
It looks like the system can not see RAIDs at all.

May be I need to install some Dell modules for my RAID controller to be recognized as one of he boot options?

Thanks a lot for your help,
yuriy

Check that the megaraid_sas driver is loading.  When I installed Etch, I
had to rebuild the initrd with that module after the initial install.

Could advice on how I can check this please? I reckon that this is my
problem as when system is trying to boot - it looks like it's not even reach
as far as HDDs at all.

Boot the system as far as you can and check the scrollback to see if the module is being loaded.
