ÂWe've > done many raid setups, it's part of our release criteria, and we haven't > ran into the issues you seem to be describing above. Let me clarify. On the criteria page i read (have to dig out the link) it said that bugs regarding having /boot on softraid are ignored at this point, so no i didnt bother filing a report. sounded like a known issue. As for the test day. Really, i always try to help out on test days but i guess i was too busy/on the road when this one happened. Manually setting up softraids with mdadm works like a charm btw. What is problematic is setting up the correct partition layout manually with 2 drives because anaconda moves around and reenumberates the partitions when you add new ones. (that drove me to insanity.) also note that using kickstart works like a charm aswell. in the notes i only found: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F13_bugs#Booting_from_an_mdraid_mirror_without_a_separate_.2Fboot_fails Atleast on the f12 install this also failed with a seperate boot. I am going to keep my eyes open for f14 and doing an install with the current f14 state soon to see which of those issues is still left and file appropriate reports regarding the open issues. I am really curious also if it will automatically make both disks of the mirror setup bootable (writing grub to both mbrs). kind regards, Rudolf Kastl kind regards, Rudolf Kastl > > - -- > Jesse Keating > Fedora -- Freedom is a feature! > identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating > > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (Darwin) > Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ > > iEYEARECAAYFAky0eG4ACgkQ4v2HLvE71NV3hACgq6Wuii5Vue4Kg7ZI4hkfFJ5J > qGMAoJ3/hd/jzljK+OUlgE/SbR9l1iaz > =lxeC > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > -- > devel mailing list > devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel > -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
