Hi all,
I went ahead and set up OpenFiler 1.1.1 on an old Pentium III with two 250GB
PATA hard drives (one master, one slave), and, with the OpenFiler installer,
created 4 RAID-1 devices using the two drives as follows:
md0: /boot [100 MB]
md1: / [4096 MB]
md2: swap [2048 MB]
md3: LVM [rest of space]
grub does not handle s/w raid for /boot in its present form, there are a
few patches available that bring this functionality in, but we're not
rolling that in till there has been enough testing.
in the mean time, the workaround to this is to manually grub-install
onto both drives you used the the md0. And the best place to do this is
to boot into 'linux rescue' mode from the installer CD and chroot into
the system installed image ( it should get mounted under /mnt/sysimage )
and run the required grub-install commands there. Essentially what you
are doing is creating boot information on both drives.
