Hello,
I am wondering if anyone can help me out. I am looking for information
about Mandrake 7.0 on a Dell PowerEdge 4300/400 with a PERC raid controller
based off of AMI MegaRaid. I am doing the install with Mandrake 7.0 Power
Pack. Has anyone gotten Mandrake to run on this machine or another with the
root device raided using hardware raid?
I can get everything installed by choosing the MegaRaid controller through
DrakX. I see that during the install both of the drives that are under raid
1 are being written to.
The problem is when I reboot I cannot mount the drive and I get the
following error: cannot open root dev 8:05 unable to mount root fs on
8:05.
Is it possible to mount a root device that is under raid 1? Is it possible
that it has something to do with the AMI raid controller? Is there something
that I forgot to do? Is there something I can do?
Any help would greatly be appreciated.
Thank you for you time.
J Walton
