Reporter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Summary: Grub does not boot on LH3 integrated HP NetRaid Version: 0.92 and 0.90 Type: software bug
Message: I am trying to boot a 2.4.19 linux-kernel on a HP Netserver LH3 (PhoenixBIOS: 4.06.43 PL) with integraged HP NetRaid card (bios: B 02.03; firmware: D 03.03). grub installation ends successfully, typing (in grub-shell) root (hd0,0) setup (hd0) Printout is: grub> root (hd0,0) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partitiontype 0x83 grub> setup (hd0) Checking if /boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes Checking if /boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes Checking if /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5" exists... yes Running "embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd0)"... 16 sectors are embedded. succeeded Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) (hd0)1+16 p (hd0,0)/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/grub/grub.conf"... succeeded Done. At boot-time, only one line is displayed saying: GRUB read error hd0 is an RAID-5 disc-array consisting of 3 drives, handled by the NetRaid controller. There are no other drives than this one. I tried using the controller in I2O mode and in mass-storage mode with megaraid driver. No change in this behaviour! Devicemap identifies drive in I2O mode: /dev/i2o/hd/disc0/disc and with megaraid driver: /dev/scsi/host0/bus2/target0/lun0/disc I tried using grub 0.90 (precompiled by Gentoo-Linux LiveCD 1.2), grub 0.92, and grub 0.92 with pci-direct enabled. Even --force-lba has no effect. Do you have any idea how to solve this problem? It is a bit weird to start this server using a DOS partition and loadlin.
