Yes, just like
Hi there,
I will get a new computer in some days and I want to build up an array.
I will use a derivate of RedHat Linux 6.1 (Halloween 4). There is RAID
support in the graphical installation tool, so I think the RAID patches
are already attached to the kernel.
Any hints what I must change, any se

either use the kernel provided with redhat or fetch
the last patches from a kernel.org mirror
they are for 2.2.11 but apply almost cleanly.

Hi,
Anybody knows where to get a driver, a patch, or a stable kernel update for
my Promise Ultra66 card? (I am running RedHat 6.1, kernel 2.2.12)
Right now I need to pass parameters (IDE2=0xD003, blah, blah, blah) to the
kernel everytime I boot, which causes the system to report "bad

I am trying to install RedHat 6.1 as an upgrade. The install recofnizes
my RAID1 drives as "Linux RAID", but when I do an upgrade, it tells
me that I have no linux partitions and it can't proceed. Has anyone
got a work around for this. The only solution I could see was perhap

I have no problem with a GUI installer.
I have a problem with having SERVER features only in GUI installer. A text-mode
installer should be the reference.

Ok,
I stand corrected. You are correct the new lilo _will_ work with / and
/boot partitions that are on a raid device. Thanks for setting me
straight.

Hello,
The kickstart mode uses the text mode installer. Therefore the option to
create raid devices during the installation is not available. Hopefully
this will be included in a future release.

Oh, please do tell why a graphical installer is a bad thing... especially
if it allows installation to a software RAID array.

Is it available if you do a kickstart installation?

I am solidly with Daniel on this. Why does no one ever use the fact that
a graphical interface can be put on top of a text mode interface (we have
multitasking don't we?) and thus kept equivalent instead of divergent?
It is self-documenting too at the developer level.
GUI means "Grossly Unpredi
Does this mean that kickstart scripts don't work, or can I use them with
the new graphical installer?

does the redhat 6.1 installation allow for root mounted raid? It would be
nice to just be able to insert a couple boot disks, and install straight
from nfs/ftp or cdrom, and not have to tweak anything manually.

to quote from the press release, 6.1 has "seamless integration of software
RAID configurations to safeguard critical data and application
availability". RAID-wise, is anything different from 6.0 except the version
of the patches/tools included?
