Hi list, I am in need of some guidance on setting up Linux software RAID-1 on a Dell server which came with an S300 "software RAID" controller (i.e. a Windows-only RAID controller.) Trying to install 64-bit Debian 6.0.3 on it, and want to set up software RAID-1 using the two 160GB HDD's that the Debian installer sees. I had tried to do a single primary partition on both HDD's and mark it for "RAID use", but after I did this and made an "md0" device using both drives' partitions, and partitioned the md0 dev into swap and "/" partitions, the installer told me it could not mount the swap partition. So, I guess that I need "real" partitions for swap?? How about "/boot"? Linux admin is not my primary thing, so any assistance in setting up Linux soft RAID-1 you all could give me would be most appreciated... Thanks, Will
