hello, |
| 2 |
the drive ordering thing is explained by Duncan already. I just want to point out that if you want |
| 3 |
to have your root partition on the raid too and if you are using the new superblock version(>=1), |
| 4 |
you should be aware of the fact, that it is not possible to auto-assemble the array during the boot |
| 5 |
process. Neither the normal raid-autodetect nor a kernel command line like |
| 6 |
raid=noautodetect root=/dev/md1 md=1,/dev/sda2,/dev/sdb2,/dev/sdc2 |
| 7 |
will work. In this case, you have to use an initramfs to assemble your root-raid, or just use the |
| 8 |
old 0.90 superblocks, which is the default, I think. |
| 9 |
I just wanted to tell you that, because I had exactly the same issue and setting up the initramfs |
| 10 |
was quite a lot of work (and IMHO only poor documentation available). |

cheers, f |
