(1) won't succeed until you have the fixes that have been added to Hardy and Intrepid. Booting degraded is what's broken in <Hardy, and fixed thereafter. I recommend that you backup your most important data, and upgrade to 8.04, reboot, upgrade to 8.10, reboot, and then grub install to your RAID device. :-Dustin -- SRU: Backport of Boot Degraded RAID functionality from Intrepid to Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290885 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
