It needs to be unpartitioned, and also it will complain if there is any partition of the LVM type (0x8e) anywhere on the drive. You can easily change that back once the kernel is upgraded and the RAID established, though. Then you can also extend the last partition so it uses all the free space (delete/recreate - as long as the new partition starts on the same cylinder boundary as the old one this is not destructive), and finally use pv/vg/lvextend and/or resize2fs to reclaim all the space. -- Tore Anderson -- fusion mpt sas driver does not find a RAID1 disk during installation(Sun Galaxy X4200 and X4100, Dell SASR5/i) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/37452 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Etienne, unfortunatelly I do not know how much space needs to be kept free at the end of the drive - I always assumed 100megs which worked for me (36G drives) free space on the filesystem does not do the job.

Re: [Bug 37452] Re: fusion mpt sas driver does not find a RAID1 disk during installation(Sun Galaxy X4200 and X4100, Dell SASR5/i)
yes you can. first install ubuntu on sda remeber to keep some megs free at the end of the disk - they will be needed for setting up the RAID later on after you have finished you need to install a kernel image that supports HW RAID for the LSI (starting from 2.6.16, e.g. stock kernel from edgy) Unfortunatelly that's the point where Kyle's image did not solve the missing support for my box. After this you can go to the LSI tool, create a mirror RAID and the tool will ask for the first disk if you want to keep the data Add the second disk and voila.

Hi Jessy, Yes, all of the patches, except the one attached to this bug report ( http://librarian.launchpad.net/5702451/linux-2.6.git- 816aa907b909177bdf6e6e6b0d00c5e5a6e2be8c-backported.patch), have been applied to the proposed-updates branch.

Hi Bjoern, Thanks for the information. It seems that we have to create our kernel ourself. As in 2.6.20, there is no problem with RAID1.

Kyle, I can't find your updated driver in any public git repository. Should it appear in http://www.kernel.org/git/linux/kernel/git/kyle/ubuntu-dapper-updates.git or http://www.kernel.org/git/linux/kernel/git/bcollins/ubuntu-dapper- updates.git?

Hi, I'm really looking forward (not to say I'm horny) to test your changes. Unfortunatelly I don't have any experience using git - will there also be some binary linux-image in a deb format? Other point we have to keep in mind is how your changes can be integrated into the dapper installer. Will there be an update towards 6.06.2?
