Hi,
I can't make lilo booting from my 2nd HD on my RAID1 installation (simulating 1st hd failure).. normal booting and booting from 1st HD is ok.
lilo hangs after: LILO 2.22 .................................
I tried different solutions from howto's and forums.. but I should make something wrong :-(
My pc runs debian stable with 2xSamsung SATA HD, md0[hde1,hdg1] '/boot', md1[hde6,hdg6] '/'.
My first question is : should I really make 2 lilo config? (actually i tried, without success)
Should I turn off lba support? in bios? in lilo?
Should I put geometry in lilo? does lba-aware-bios bypass this parameters? which geometry should I use? (fdisk give two different geom for both HD, and anotherone is shown in syslog...)
Is there a way to 'debug' my lilo config, or should I go further with try-and-error ?
Yeah.. lot of questions... sorry.
Thanks for all you hints and help.
I never worked with RAID and SATA, but can you swap disks on interface?
swapping both hd produce to the same result: I cannot boot from hdg. I also tried to write first hd mbr, swapping and then writing 2nd hd mbr.. it doesn't work :-(
