I think it also wants a /boot partition in this case. It can be ext4. Make sure it is big enough for 3 kernels+initrds, at least 1G. I’ve not really explored the RAID install options so it might be that the type of RAID you chose can’t be mounted by GRUB. If grub can’t get to the kernel and initrd, it can’t boot the OS. -- Jonathan Billings -- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
