Re: Debian can not boot from RAID-1

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?

Dell modules? Are you thinking like a kernel module? No, if the system doesn't even show the initrd loading, that won't do any good. I've never heard of anyone needing anything special to boot linux on a Dell.

What is the last thing that displays on the screen when you power it on? A non-system disk error? Swear words in Mongolian?

Knowing this should help diagnose the issue.
