Greetings, I'm having some trouble with a new server. It's a Compaq ProLiant ML370 G2 with a Smart Array 421 hardware RAID card.
fdisk is seeing the drive geometry wrong - it thinks the drive has 1 head and 1 cylinder, which as you can imagine makes partitioning a little difficult. I can partition it with Disk Druid and it does install and boot correctly, but when I run fdisk it gives warnings about partitions not ending on correct boundaries and so on. Ideally I'd like to be able to partition using fdisk as I like to have the partitions in a specific order, not to mention being able to change the partition layout later. I've created the RAID disk several times using sizes as small as 2.5Gb, but I'm still having the same problem. Is this an issue with fdisk, the RAID card or? Any ideas or solutions are would be most appreciated. Thanks! -Eric Eric Sisler Applications Specialist Westminster Public Library Westminster, CO USA Linux - Don't fear the Penguin.
