There is no apparent option to install Grub to / on /dev/md3. For boot loader location I see only: 1-MBR (where I always use standard boot code) 2-"Enable Redundancy for MD Array" 3-Custom Boot Partition Option 2's help only speaks of MBR redundancy. MBR in my case is not to be touched. If I try put /dev/md3 in Custom, I get a popup telling me "Selected custom bootloader partition /dev/md3 is not available any more. Set default boot loader location?" IOW, booting from / (on /dev/md3 in this case) is missing from the list, and not available from bootloader configuration. If I click on "Boot Loader Installation Details", all I see is a list of my two SATA devices under "Disk Order". When I exit "booting", I get a message in red telling me "The boot device is on software RAID1. Select another bootloader location, e.g. Master Boot Record" whether or not I have there clicked to enable boot from / partition. I proceeded after "enabling" boot from /. Upon inspection after first/kexec "boot" the PBR of /dev/md3 seems to remain empty. Both 'dd if=/dev/md3 of=md3pbr.bin count=1 bs=512' and 'dd if=/dev/sda10 of=sda10pbr.bin count=1 bs=512' produce files full of nulls. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
