"RAID1 with swap on the first partition and root on the second partition doesn't boot after GRUB install. I had been tried installing a few times before seeing that. Once I saw that I switched the partitions and it booted just fine. <Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments and ideas you had during the initial install.> The installation went very well after I found the solution. Thank you for the built in software RAID and e1000 driver they made my life with Debian bearable. Is there anyway that you could have an option where you select which distribution you would like installed? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
