Ubuntu | base-installer
Summary: Can't set priority of volumes in LVM manager -- install
Product: Ubuntu
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS/Version: other
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: base-installer
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'm installing the daily build of Kubuntu as of 9/21. I created a RAID0 out of
partitions on three
disks. I then marked that as PV for LVM. I also marked some free space on one
of the drives as a PV
for LVM.
The problem is that there is no way to control the priority of the two PV's.
That is, I can only
associate them in a set, but I cannot be sure that the LVM won't put the normal
partition first.
Naturally, what I want is for it to use the RAID first and then only when that
fills should it spill
over into the regular partition.
There needs to be a way to control this.
Aside: when setting up RAID, do you make sure that the stride and block size
are offset properly for
whatever filesystem is being installed? I understand that ext3 likes to space
information evenly on the
disk, and if that spacing is a multiple of the block size times the number of
disks, you'll defeat the
much of the point in using RAID0.
Thanks.
