I have also thinked that can be the the phisycal disk, but the raid is
composed of two disks, so why i can see only one disk with fdisk -l ?
I have also looked into the modules, the difference from the running system and the installation system is the cciss module, into the installation system isn't loaded. I have tryied to load it manually, from the command line, the module is loaded but not used by anyone...
I am really confused about this...
Cheers,
Claudio.
A little (not so little) update about that issue. I have worked with that upgrade for the last two days. At first, i have tryied the online update from 11.3 to 11.4, and after a first reboot, the system hangs with an error like "unable to mount VFS root" at boot time. Booted it with a 11.4 rescue cd, and i can see the module hpsa, and not cciss. The raid is seen as /dev/sdx. Previously, into the 11.3 it was seen as /dev/cciss/.... According from what read at that link - http://cciss.sourceforge.net/ - that controller (Smart Array P410i), it uses hpsa. Into the previous kernels, it uses module cciss. So, i have tried to fix it modifying fstab, mtab, system.map, and reinstalling grub (by the rescue disk, mounting disks, dev and proc, and chrooting it on the rescue), but with no success. My last (and working try), is to re-install all from the scratch. My questions are two: - Any chance to have a working upgrade procedure with systems having that hardware? As i can think, that is a bad issue. - How to fix a situation like this with rescue? I have tryied it, but something is wrong....
