I just have two drives and each drive has 3 identical partitions each: sda1 = 2048MB Bootable ext4 - mounted to /boot sda2 = 40960 MB ext4 - mounted to / sda3 = 208 GB RAID sdb1 = 2048 MB swap sdb2 = 40960 MB ext4 - mounted to /var sdb3 = 208 GB RAID 1. modprobe raid1 2. mdadm --create --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sda3 /dev/sb3 3. rm /etc/mdadm.conf 4. mdadm -D --scan >> /etc/mdadm.conf Then I run through the installer and configure the system accordingly and it works perfect upon the reboot. My main goal was to do this with 3 physical drives and do a RAID5 array however that always fails and I have no idea why. When I reboot, I loose the keyboard functionality and it wont load /dev/md0 even though /boot and / are not on RAID partitions. I am just running /home on RAID. Does this sound strange to anyone else? I can't understand it.
