Hello, I tried to setup a fresh install of 10.3 with 2 disks and I used YaST to mirror all my partitions. I had originally my raid swap partitions on an extended partition but that didn't work and I thought that was the problem so instead now I put the raid partitions on primary partitions, which still doesn't work. Any suggestions would be appreciated because I'm completely stumped, I can't figure out for the life of mine why my swap partition won't work.
