-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bonsoir,
I encounter a difficulty while partitionning. The situation: 4 disks: 2 "old" HDD with the previous install (fedora 10). These 2 disks contain 2 raid(1) arrays, one with the / partition and one with the system (/usr, /var, /tmp, /tmp, /home) using LVM. 2 SSD that I intend to configurate in the same way as the HDD: 2 raid(1) arrays (/boot and the rest (except /home, /var, /tmp), including /), using LVM. The installer reads: device RAID1 n°0 ext3 (old HDDs, first array) device RAID1 n°1 lvm (old HDDs, second array) device RAID1 n°2 ext4 (SSDs, first array) device RAID1 n°3 lvm (SSDs, second array) SCSI1 (sda) with 2 raid devices (1st SSD) SCSI2 (sdb) with 2 raid devices (2nd SSD) SCSI5 (sdc) with 2 raid devices (1st HDD) SCSI6 (sdd) with 2 raid devices (2nd HDD) I could configurate device RAID n°2 giving the mount point (/boot) and ext4 formatting. When I want to configurate the lvm on device RAID n°3, the installer returns: before the LVM could be configurated, the actual scheme of partitionment must be set down. *These changes will be irreversible*. <......> The following partition tables will be changed: RAID1 n°2: SCSI5 (0,0,0) (sdc) SCSI6 (0,0,0) (sdd) The following partitions will be formated: partition 1 on device RAID1 n°2, type ext4 I am upset by this: 1- RAID device n°2 is supposed to be the first array on SSDs corresponding to sda and sdb (and not sdc and sdd) 2- I don't want to change anything in RAID devices n°0 and n°1 (sdc and sdd) because I want to keep the old system untill the new one will be installed on the SSD (sda and sdb) *and* I want to use the /home partition of these old disks as the /home of the new installation.... (Everything is backed up.... but I prefer to understand what is going on here!) I hope to have been clear enough: I am not a computer scientist and English language is not my mother tongue... So I could have done some mistakes and did not use the right vocabulary.
