[Bug 363474] [NEW] 9.04 server install doesn't provide static IP or DHCP with static IP options

2009-04-18 Thread Timothy Miller
Public bug reported: I'm trying to install 9.04 server rc, and I've noticed that there are no options for setting up a static IP address. This is a server distribution, which means that most of the time, static IP is going to be preferable, so I would expect the installer to assume this. Still,

[Bug 361733] [NEW] fakeRAID and software RAID are two different things

Public bug reported: This is a kernel bug. Actually, it's intended behavior, but it shouldn't be. In theory, fake RAID and software RAID should be the same thing. The only practical difference is where they get their metadata from. One from the system BIOS, the other from the disk. However,
