Hello,
I am configuring an Ubuntu 9.04 Desktop with 4 disks; the primary is a
single disk where the O/S resides. The other 3 I am trying to configure in a
software raid 5. To do this I am using mdadm; the problem I am having is that
post configuration using cfdisk and the mdadm --create command, I restart, and
the OS tries to boot from the raid 5, rather then the single disk. I am then
stuck into the (initramfs) prompt and forced to repair by uninstalling mdadm.
I am of the impression that the /boot is actually modified when installing
and configuring the mdadm.
The question at this point, is where do I need to configure the "boot"
option; and what would it be. The technical details are below.
single disk is /dev/sda1
raid array 5
/dev/sdb1
/dev/sdc2
/dev/sdd2
the /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf
DEVICE partitions
ARRAY /dev/md0
level=raid5
num-devices=3
metadata=00.90 spares=0
UUID=275d06f7:703df9fd:baf54294:a0156108
MAILADDR root
Sincerely,
Chris Thompson
Done Right I.T.
