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
