Need help please! Here is my current system. /boot is a md0 raid1 mirrored over 4 scsi disk, host0 target9, h0t10, h1t9, h1t10. / is a md11 raid1 mirrored over the same four disks. md0 is part1 and md11 is part2 my lilo has the option for raid-????-boot=mbr-only and LILO does load the kernel. heres the problem. raidautostart /dev/md0 failed kernel unable to mount root directory 09:00. I have tried to make a initrd with --preload raid1 and - -with=raid1 but still no luck. also unzip my initrd and looked in the /dev only entry was md0 which was a symbolic link to md/0. Tried to mknod the files, sda, sdb... sda1, sda2, ... and md0, md11 and still no luck? Please any ides would be really helpful Michael _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
