Installed 9 on a system like so: /dev/sda1 /vol2 /dev/sdb1 / /dev/sdc1 swap /dev/sdc2 -> /dev/md0 -> /vol1 /dev/sdd1 swap /dev/sdd2 -> /dev/md0 -> /vol1 Now the system only shows "GRUB" at bootup. Much like the old "LI" problem in LILO. Any ideas? Also, during installation, disk druid asked me how I wanted to format the /dev/md0 RAID. I could select ext2, ext3, RAID, LVM, etc. Now, how can you format a raid set as RAID? It already knows it is RAID. So I selected it just to see what it would do. It skipped the formating of /dev/md0 and this may also contributed to not booting. weird. -eric wood
