Hi, about half a year ago I set up a Raid-Server with Mirroring. It run fine and rebuild nicely when one disk was removed from it's bus. Today we had a crash of the machine due to heat problems caused probably by a broken fan :-( At the moment my colleague at the location is trying to get the m

Hi, welcome to the club if you read through recent archives of the list you will find, that there are several people on the list (including myself) facing the same. It seems that the lilo-patch is buggy. It accepts a raid-device for boot but does not build the boot block on all devices. T

Booting from raid1 - halfway only

1999-01-16 Thread Jochen Haeberle
Hi, thanks to the online version of the Software-RAID HowTo (the one that comes with the raidtools 0.90 is hopelessly out of date), I was able to build a system totally running on RAID1 volumes. I have autodetection working, patched version of lilo that accepts boot=/dev/md0 and / mounted on
