Package: debian-installer Severity: normal Hi,
Today I've finished an installation on i386 with root on LVM, using RC1 businesscard CD. I had only one IDE hard drive, and made two partitions -- /dev/hda1 as /boot, and /dev/hda2 as the LVM volume group. The whole partition process and LVM configuration is done in partman, and goes very smoothly. I booted with linux26 so the kernel I got in the end is 2.6.7, which works quite well in my limited testing. The only problem I see is that after my LVM configuration, there is an dialog warning that LVM won't work with /boot or / on LVM. I proceeded anyway and installed GRUB on mbr, which boots just fine. Am I just lucky to get this work, or d-i already supports root on LVM (at least for 2.6 kernel)? If yes, this warning dialog should be changed. (I am also curious about /boot on LVM, is that possible with the current kernel Debian ships?) Thanks for the wonderful work, Ming 2004.08.23 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Physics is much too hard for physicists. --- David Hilbert -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
