That solution of stopping and starting dmraid on the same line was
only tested for those people who had previously installed FC5 to their
striped dmraid array, and were unable to get it to work with a new
kernel 2.6.17 and above update. If you created your partitions
manually and manually copied the data over then there might be other
problems to deal with. I suggest trying to install FC5 to the array
with anaconda, the fedora core installer, first.
Okay, before I go and blow everything away. I just want to check.
1. I should be booting off the running kernel I have
2. I should be doing a dmraid -a n && dmraid -a y
3. I should then be building the new kernel initrd
4. For initrd to be built properly I need to be running the container as
/ ?? like I said, I tried by booting off the ata hard disk, with
2.6.18-1, I did the stop/start and then built the initrd having modified
the fstab to point to /dev/mapper/isw_...
Other than that, yeah, I agree it's possible that by using fdisk
manually I've potentially misaligned something that maybe anaconda fixes.
*sigh* back to the drawing board.
