Success!!!! Can create RAID 5 partition for install !!

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

 



Finally. I was able to get everything installed properly.

This is what I did:

1) Booted to 8.0 CD and went into graphical setup.
2) I went into FDISK and created three auto raid partitions (102mb
boot, 510 swap, 35GB+ for /) on each drive. I wrote everything to the
partition table and received the "busy " error. I did "dd" each drive
before I created the partitions, not sure if this made any difference.
3) Restarted the machine.
4) Booted to 8.0 CD and went into graphical setup.
5) Used druid to create the three RAID partitions, RAID 1 for boot with
hot spare, RAID 1 for swap with hot spare, RAID 5 (getting a big 70GB
from the two 35GB partitions). 

This should give me exactly the redundancy I need and maximize space
for /

Many thanks for your responses.
