Hi -
I'm trying to make a autoyast configuration file which will install a
machine with 3 software raid 1 devices (root, swap, and a data partition)
using SLES 9. The partitions will already exist on the drives.
Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work. yast seems to want to mount the
individual component partitions as /data1 ... /data6. It only seems to
want to use the /dev/md2 device, and ignores md0-md1.
Can anyone see the problem, or does someone have a similar working file I
can look at?
