<partitioning config:type="list"> <drive> <device>/dev/hda</device> <initialize config:type="boolean">true</initialize> <partitions config:type="list"> <partition> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_type>primary</partition_type> <partition_id config:type="integer">253</partition_id> <raid_name>/dev/md0</raid_name> <raid_type>raid</raid_type>
I don't think <raid_type> is needed/allowed here. <partition_id> and <raid_name> are sufficient to make this partion a raid partition which belongs to /dev/md0. I use the following: <partition> <crypt_fs config:type="boolean">false</crypt_fs> <crypt_key></crypt_key> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <raid_name>/dev/md0</raid_name> <partition_id config:type="integer">253</partition_id> <partition_nr config:type="integer">2</partition_nr> <size>max</size> </partition>
<size>512M</size> </partition> <partition> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_type>primary</partition_type> <partition_id config:type="integer">253</partition_id> <raid_name>/dev/md1</raid_name> <raid_type>raid</raid_type>
See above.
<size>1G</size> </partition> <partition> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_type>primary</partition_type> <partition_id config:type="integer">253</partition_id> <raid_name>/dev/md2</raid_name> <raid_type>raid</raid_type>

<partition_id> is not needed/allowed here. <partition_nr> is enough. This is not a physical partition but a kind of virtual partion. I use the following: <partition> <raid_options> <parity_algorithm>left-asymmetric</parity_algorithm> <chunk_size>4</chunk_size> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> </raid_options> <mount>/boot</mount> <format config:type="boolean">true</format> <filesystem config:type="symbol">ext3</filesystem> <partition_nr config:type="integer">1</partition_nr> </partition>
<partition_nr config:type="integer">0</partition_nr> <raid_options> <chunk_size>4</chunk_size> <parity_algorithm>left-asymmetric</parity_algorithm> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> </raid_options> </partition> <partition> <format config:type="boolean">true</format> <mount>/</mount> <partition_id config:type="integer">130</partition_id>
See above.
<partition_nr config:type="integer">1</partition_nr> <raid_options> <chunk_size>4</chunk_size> <parity_algorithm>left-asymmetric</parity_algorithm> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> </raid_options> </partition> <partition> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_nr config:type="integer">2</partition_nr> <raid_options> <chunk_size>4</chunk_size> <parity_algorithm>left-asymmetric</parity_algorithm> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> </raid_options>
This is an md partition which is an LVM physical volume, right? You need an <lvm_group> here. Something like <partition> <raid_options> <parity_algorithm>left-asymmetric</parity_algorithm> <chunk_size>4</chunk_size> <raid_type>raid1</raid_type> </raid_options> <lvm_group>system</lvm_group> <mount /> <format config:type="boolean">false</format> <partition_nr config:type="integer">2</partition_nr> </partition>
</partition> </partitions> <use>all</use> </drive> <drive> <device>/dev/md2</device>
You already have define the device /dev/md2 by defining a partition with partition_nr 2 inside of device /dev/md above. This <drive> section can be removed.
