(Get the code!)
hi Phillip,
Found some time to test the second machine as well (intel chipset, 2
discs in mirrored set).
Booted off a Natty daily usb (looking nice!) in order to have Gparted
0.7 which handles dmraid correctly.
Shrunk / fs and formatted to ext4.
Created an ext4 primary partition to be used as /home.
Created an ext4 primary partition to be used as DATA.
Created a swap space as an extended partition.
No spearate /boot, no Windows dual boot.
Shutdown, then booted Maverick Server 32bit from usb-stick.
Entire install went ok, selected manual partition and told it the
corerct fs and mount points. Didn't format, because that was already
done and Maverick comes with Gparted 0.6x.
Selected minimal system and no applications yet.
There were no glitches and Grub did install itself correctly on the
raid, not one of the individual disks. Exactly like you said it should.
Rebooted, got the familiar udev messages and..... failed to mount /home.
Chose Skip and could log in ok.
Rebooted, same story.
Will try the same boot options with udev logging like you asked for the
other machine and report back.
cheers
Tom
