Hi Dave,
Bootable RAID 1 is fun isn't it? ;)
I think we saw this problem when playing with our Raid this week. My guesses
would be:
*) Raid support is not enabled in the kernel
*) Auto-mount raid partitions are not enabled in the kernel
*) The raid partitions are not type fd
*) Something is broken in lilo. Check your lilo.conf and reinstall.
I assume you have a boot disk and it boots if you use mount root=/dev/md0 ?
Good luck ;)
Cheers,
Marty
