i'm trying to install gentoo on Adaptec AAC-RAID (rev 01) Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company AAR-2610SA. i've made RAID5 array with the 4 sata disks. And i have also 1 IDE disk with the old gentoo. My aim is to get rid of this IDE disk and to install gentoo on whole RAID5 array.
so this is it. Old IDE: /dev/hda5 291M 79M 212M 28% / /dev/hda6 6.6G 1.7G 4.9G 26% /usr /dev/hda7 30G 195M 30G 1% /var /dev/hda1 71M 38M 34M 53% /boot and here is the sata array: /dev/sda1 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 2 /dev/sda3 / reiserfs noatime 0 1 /dev/sda2 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/sda4 /store reiserfs auto 0 0 so, i've just copied all files from IDE to sda-raid array, compiled new kernel with the genkernel-tool and installed it on sda. kernel configuration: http://paste.org.ru/?wa5zzf dmesg(of the same kernel on IDE): http://paste.org.ru/?9loypk my grub.conf: default 0 timeout 10 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz title=Gentoo Linux root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.19-gentoo-r5 root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc ramdisk=8192 real_root=/dev/sda3 udev initrd /boot/initramfs-genkernel-x86-2.6.19-gentoo-r5 after installation and copying i've removed IDE disk and tried to boot from sda array. grub was loaded succesfully but the kernel was stuck with this error:
