** Description changed: - Binary package hint: dmraid + When using dmraid 0+1, several devices appear in /dev/mapper to describe + the strips that form the legs of the mirror, and the mirror itself. The + installer only gives the choice of using the two stripes that form the + legs, and not the whole mirror. For example, in /dev/mapper: - I tried to upgrade from 8.04 LTS (up to date 10-04-11) to 10.04 (Beta). Upgrade fails as system could not read root partition. - My configuration at 8.04 is using dmraid with 0+1 configuration and with nVidia chip. - Apparently the upgrade procedure didn't include support for dmraid but after upgrade + reboot the system failed and falled back to init-ram-fs prompt. I didn't try further but I guess I would have managed to install dmraid manually later. - - ProblemType: Bug - Architecture: amd64 - Date: Sun Apr 11 17:55:45 2010 - DistroRelease: Ubuntu 8.04 - NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx ath_hal - Package: dmraid 1.0.0.rc14-0ubuntu3.1 - PackageArchitecture: amd64 - ProcEnviron: - PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games - LANG=en_US.UTF-8 - SHELL=/bin/bash - SourcePackage: dmraid - Uname: Linux 2.6.24-27-generic x86_64 + nvidia_bfcdciea-0 and nvidia_bfcdciea-1 are the stripes, which are then + mirrored to create nvidia_bfcdciea. The partitions are then detected on + nvidia_bfcdciea as nvidia_bfcdciea[1234]. See the screen shot in + comment #24 for what Ubiquity shows during the partitioning stage.
