1 Hi,
2
3 I just finished basic gentoo installation, installed boot-loader
4 (lilo) and tried to restart. But to my surprise, computer does
5 not boot. All I can see is blinking underscore character in top
6 left corner of screen, no prompt, nothing more...
7
8 === lilo.conf ===
9 password = ""
10 restricted
11 delay=5
12 boot = /dev/md0
13 prompt
14 timeout = 30
15 default = gentoo
16 image = /boot/kernel-2.6.15-gentoo-r7
17 label = gentoo
18 read-only
19 root = /dev/md1
20
21 === /etc/fstab ===
22 /dev/md0 /boot ext3 noatime 1 2
23 /dev/md1 / ext3 defaults 0 1
24 /dev/md2 none swap sw 0 0
25 (+ a few more partitions)
26
27 md0, md1, md2 are raid1 (sda1+sdb1, sda2+sdb2, sda3+sdb3)
28 raid support is compiled in kernel (no modules).
29
30 I have done this kind of installation a few times
31 (2 disks, everything in raid1) without any problem.
32 What is wrong this time? Did I screw something up?
