We recently acquired Dell rack-optimized server. The supplied Open Manage CD took care of the installation of RHES 4.0. It simply asked for configuration information like disk partitions, network settings, etc. After the installation, I realized that the LVM is enabled. The box comes with two (2) SATA disks and I intend to mirror them for added data protection. My problem is, the first disk is already under LVM control. Would it still be possible to mirror the disk? Actually, I wouldn't mind reinstalling the RHES 4.0 but the problem is, the server uses Intel ICH7R SATA disk controller and the installation kernel does not have the driver preloaded. I already tried to re-install the OS and load the driver by using a driver disk, but still, the installation kernel cannot detect the SATA disks, hence the installation cannot proceed. So I guess my best direction is to try to mirror the first disk. Is there anyway to go around LVM?
