booting completely from a raid1 device.
This is my setup...
sda1 is booting, working great. I'm attempting to transition to a
bootable raid1.
sdb1 is a 400GB partition -- it is type FD.
Disk /dev/sdb: 400.0 GB, 400088457216 bytes
2 heads, 4 sectors/track, 97677846 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 8 * 512 = 4096 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 1 97677846 390711382 fd Linux raid
autodetect
I have created my raid1 mirror with the following command:
mdadm --create /dev/md_d0 -e1 -ap --level=1 --raid-devices=2
missing,/dev/sdb1
The raid created correctly, I then partitioned md_d0 to match sda1.
I hope that's a typo... you need to partition sdb, not the md_d0 raid
device.
