Hi,
I think we do have some customisation in the various scripts, including
GRUB_EFI/10-setup, that may account for it.
As our script for grub is quite custom to our use case, I'm not sure I can
share it I'm afraid. But, that is where you need to start investigating.
This is from vague
Hello Justin,
thanks for the quick answer.
I tried to use your disk_config. And I get a a raid as expected.
But the script for settign up grup [ config/scipts/GRUP_EFI/10-setup ]
fails.
Hence I end up with a system tha can not boot.
What I find in [ scripts.log ]:

TL;DR: IMO having /boot/uefi on (sw) RAID1 is not worth the headaches.
Long version follows.
That's quite normal. You should use older RAID format that places
metadata at the end of the partition instead of the newer that places it
at the beginning. And even so it's risky, since one of the
Hey,
Just a note that I've found that some hardware doesn't like /boot/efi being
on RAID1. Which is rather disappointing.
But otherwise, the examples that Justin provided look very similar to what
I've succesfully used (although sometimes without the RAID1 for /boot/efi!)
Cheers,

Hi,
There's probably a few different ways to do this. Here is a fairly generic
disk_config example I created last time I was working on FAI.
I haven't used the config n a while, but it's should be some inspiration
even if it doesn't work for you as it is:
$ cat disk_config/FAIBASE_EFI_RAID

Hello,
I am rather new to FAI. But I am impresst by this great tool.
Especially by the documentation that commes with it.
But I am suprised I do not find any working example on how to set up a
simple RAID 1 with UEFI boot.
I read all the discussions in this mailinglist (found two threads

Hi Alexander,
my short search found some links that all say, UEFI cannot boot

a /boot/efi partitions on each disk and have two UEFI boot entries.

RAID + BIOS/MBR case, and also a working configuration for the

configure the RAID+EFI case, but this is of course not as trivial as
it first seemed.
