More information on my hardware Here is my set up: Intel S5500HCV dual CPU 5520 latest BIOS software raid 3 Arrays RAID 0 - configured as boot 1 SSD 90G 3 partitions Windows 7 installed first 2, 10.10 installed on 3rd RAID 0 - 2 152 gig disks 1 partition for Ubuntu swap swap, remaining partitions used for open suse RAID 1 - 2 1T drives 1 partition used for shared storage
This is the process that I followed to install Loaded Windows 7 - create 50 G partition for windows leave remainder for linux -- no issues load with Alternate Installation CD, (I can replicate via Live CD) select rescue option, and go through normal steps until rescue. select "Do not mount a root partition" & run in installer environment. run "dmraid -ay" to mount th raid arrays. I do manual partition option, select 3rd partition on SSD format EXT4 set as root select 1st partition on Raid 0 array with HD. let it install accept default to install grub on /dev/mapper/ddf1_4c53492020202020808629250000000047114711000028a0 which is the device for the first array containing the SSD This is where failure occurs. There are a lot of errors reported in the syslog regarding the RAID arrays. I'm not sure what to make of that as neither Windows 7 nor Open SUSE seems to report errors. I will try to locate install logs for Open SUSE if you believe that they might be useful. -- grub-probe can't find BIOS RAID disk https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/677857 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
