different behaviors for anaconda depending on iso files

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Bonjour,

Trying to install f40 to replace my f36, I wanted to have a RAID1 install as it was the case for f36 (see my other posts).

I downloaded Fedora-Server-netinst iso file. None of the partition scheme I tried was approved by anaconda: error was "efi partition cannot be raid_member". So I tried to put the efi partition outside a raid array (say sda1) and the error was that "the device of the boot loader stage2 is on a multi-disk matrix (sda2|sdb2) but not the one of sda1".... It is a dumb message because I did not ask for the boot loader be on sda2|sdb2 RAID partition (/ ) but on /boot/efi (sda1).

I downloaded Fedora-Workstation-Live iso file. Selected French as the install language and french azerty keyboard.... The keyboard remained as a qwerty keyboard which is very easy to type a password that you will use with an azerty keyboard. Never mind I could manage... But in my attemps to define a partition scheme, the errors were the same as for the netinst iso file....

I downloaded the Fedora-Xfce-Live iso file and.... miracle! I could put the efi boot partition on a raid1 array and at the end it worked!

What a waste of time! Who said (and programmed anaconda) that the efi partition cannot be installed on a raid array? Therefore blocking the install of f40.

Now, if someone could tell me how to mount an lvm2_member, I will be happy! Indeed, my personnal data are on a disk from the f36 install which is a RAID1 member and an lvm2_member. If I try:

mount /dev/sdd2

I get "unknown filesystem linux_raid_member"

I can bypass this error typing

mount /dev/md5

But the error is now: "unknown filesystem lvm2_member" and I don't know how to bypass this error.

Thank you for helping.
