Evening, all [Please do forgive me if this is the wrong forum to ask this question.]
I'm attempting to install etch beta 2 and my initial, "do it all as completely as possible" disk partitioning scheme resulted in (a) the installer complaining and (b) a non-booting system. Before I carry on and build the system up from a simpler scheme, however, I thought I'd check that what I'm attempting is neither unsupported nor currently broken. I'm aware of the.first beta 2 erratum, and that it might be the cause of my problem (b). So, please could I ask this of any knowledgeable persons here present - are the following two partitioning schemes achieveable /from/within/the/installer/? 1) hda and hdc are both 80 gig Maxtors hda1 and hdc1: RAID1 physical volumes, backing md0 (256 Mb) hda2 and hdc2: RAID1 physical volumes, backing md1 (10Gb+) md0: /boot md1: / 2) Same as #1, except that md1 is specified as being an LVM physical volume (for /, /var, /usr, etc.) Should either, or both, of these schemes work? Many thanks, Jonathan -- Don't anthropomorphize computers. They don't like it.
