f29 bootloader changes / raid1 installs + efi

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

 



Hello,

I am curious if any of the upcoming changes also solve the following issue:

Workstation setup where you want full disk redudancy with raid1 and efi boot.

* Setting up the OS to be placed on raid1 leaves you with multiple options (mdadm/btrfs/...)
* Setting up EFI only makes one of those disks bootable
* The EFI partition contians the grub2-efi.cfg file which gets updated every time a new kernel is installed.

-> Currently the efi partition content (specifically grub2-efi.cfg) has to be synced manually to the 2nd disk in the raid1 set, to allow booting from the 2nd disk in case of disk failure of the first disk that contains the original EFI partition that is mounted under /boot/efi.

The only potential workaround to avoid manual syncing i know of currently, is to not use EFI but rather legacy bios boot.
