Hi, I have a raid level 1 on 2 scsi drives and an IDE drive.
I'm trying to set MBR on all my drives so if the first one goes down the
system will still boot.
I followed advice from this list's archive and set up a lilo.conf file for
each drive:
lilo.conf.hda
lilo.conf.sda
lilo.conf.sdb
when I try
lilo -C /etc/lilo.conf.sdb
I get this error:
[root@gold /root]# lilo -C /etc/lilo.conf.sdb
Warning: /dev/sdb is not on the first disk
Sorry, don't know how to handle device 0x0905
here is my lilo.conf.sdb
the other two are identical except for the boot= they are boot=/dev/sda and
boot=/dev/hda
I am also not sure about the bios=0x80 param (from the boot on raid how-to)
it also mentions bios=81
which do I use? I have an adaptec 3940U2W
