Hi list, I have installed a new board/cpu/ram, and decided to do a clean install of win/linux. I installed linux, all went well, but then I thought to myself, I will try out using software raid and see what performance gains I get. So I removed the fresh install of linux, and re-did it trying to use the software raid. Partitioning it all goes well, and no errors are given, and it formats all o.k., but when it gets to the last step, when a progress bar comes up saying preparing to install, it gets about 1cm into the bar, and then the computer shuts down. I know it is not the computer as such, as windows is working well (unfortunately I am in it now!), and the ordinary install of linux worked no probs as well. It's just when I am selecting the software raid. Partition setup is as follows:- (hda being a 80gig drive, hdc being a 40gig drive) hda1 - windows partition 7000mb hda2 - /boot 102mb hda3 - /software raid 18000mb hda4 - /greg - rest of drive
hdc1 - windows partion 18000mb hdc2 - /software raid 18000mb hdc3 - /swap partition 1000mb raid is device md0 mounted as ext3, / , 36000mb. what am I doing wrong?? regards Greg -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
