I am trying now for 8 days to make nvidia RAID works on gentoo |
| 4 |
systems; I pass trhought all stages, I had difficult make live cd |
| 5 |
works, then after it works I have to use the hard way to make grub |
| 6 |
install.... after all that I thought it was every thing cool and I |
| 7 |
would be allowed to run my gentoo, I was wrong. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
I had tried genkernel and Hard way ( a script to genrate initrd ) on |
| 10 |
kernel 2.6.16 and none of then work, always complaining that real_root |
| 11 |
wasn´t there and I could run a shell and really there was just |
| 12 |
/dev/mapper/control no raid device. So some wise guys said to me, |
| 13 |
there is a bug on 2.6.16 that doesn´t work with RAID 0, so I emerged |
| 14 |
2.6.15-r1 and tried again both ways, genkernel and the other ...... |
| 15 |
again none of them work, with a addin, my kernel panics at boot ! |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
so were should I go now, just use windows .... because infortunilly |
| 18 |
every single hardware fabricant just think of windows users...... I |
| 19 |
can not erase my windows, and RAID on windows gives a real boost. So |
| 20 |
what is left to me is keep trying make the louse nvidia fake raid work |
| 21 |
on linux ...... |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
I pray for a wise guy that had done this before !!!! HELP ME !!!!! I |
| 24 |
think I had tried everything I know and some things that I didn´t know |
| 25 |
either !!!! |
