Hi,
thanks to the online version of the Software-RAID HowTo (the one that
comes with the raidtools 0.90 is hopelessly out of date), I was able
to build a system totally running on RAID1 volumes.
I have autodetection working, patched version of lilo that accepts
boot=/dev/md0 and / mounted on /dev/md0.
It works it runs fine and I am already able to disable one of the two
disks, but if this is the wrong disk, problems start...
Although lilo.raid accepts my lilo.conf and shows two parts of adding
configs, only the first disk in the raid seems bootable.
The only sign of failure I get is a line saying "open /tmp/dev.0: No
suitable device found" after adding the configs to the boot record of
the second disk.
I am using the patched lilo version from RedHat 6.1 (the binary RPM,
as the source could not be compiled due to lack of LaTex...) on a
SuSE 6.2... could this be the problem??
