Hi,
I just did an install of fc17 x86_64 on a box with 4 SATA 250GB disks
and set up the partitions manually. I created /boot on sda as one
500MB partition, then two RAID partitions using the rest of the
contents of the disks. The first is a RAID1 with four disks for root
and the rest is /var.
Is there a command-line gparted or is it no longer possible to edit
the partition table from the command-line?
Why is there a mixture of old fdisk and new GPT disk layout?
How can I determine which disks are part of which array after the
install? My mdadm.conf just has the UUIDs in it...
