Hi,
I'm trying to setup a 64-bit server with RAID.
using Suse 10.1 64-bit version.
I have a IDE 80GB harddrive on hda which I want to use for booting and swapping.
I have 3 x 80GB SATA drives I want to use as a RAID5 unit.
The problem is that I can't get the install process to boot from the hard drive.
The mounting points are:
IDE drive is /boot
Raid drive is /<root>
Where am I getting things wrong?
What do you mean by "can't get the install process to boot from the hard drive" - this can be an issue of the PATA/SATA drives showup up in different orders between the BIOS and the kernel. What more information can you give us?
When booting I get the following messages on screen: Listing of the devices etc Verifying DMI Pool Data..... GRUB loading stage1.5. GRUB loading, please wait.... graphics file "(hd3,0)/message" missing, press a key to continue... Next screen: Booting 'SUSE Linux 10.1 root (hd3,0) Filesystem type is reiserfs, partition type 0xfd kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/md0 vga=0x317 resume=/dev/hda5 splash=silent show opts Error 16: Inconsistent filesystem structure Press any key to continue...
