Hi All. This could be an issue for Debian Sparc if any desktop (cheapo) SATA RAID controllers work in Debian Sparc . . .
I have an i386 machine which can dual boot XP and Debian fine (using grub) when only one drive is booting off the Silicon Image SATA controller. If I make a RAID1 set (i.e. copy the install to a second drive using the SATA raid BIOS utility) and try to boot, grub gets confused and can't load either OS. Grub dumps me into its shell when it enters its second stage. If I break the mirror set, (again, using the controller's own util) booting to either OS again becomes possible. Is there an easy fix? I know I need to research it and get a clue about grub but I have several other fish to fry this weekend. -- Matthew Herzog acamm.org is powered by NetBSD and Debian Linux :www.netbsd.org:
