It would have been much easier, if the installer would have supported raid10!The current development version (daily builds) of the debian-installer support RAID 10. It should automatically detect your previous RAID 10 partitions when starting the partitioner. Could you give it a try? You don't actually have to proceed further than the main partioning screen.I'll try it and report back (probably before thursday).
I tried the latest netinst daily build from 25-Aug-2008 11:35 161MMy raid10 array is detected by the kernel, and /dev/md4 shows up, however the partition manager won't start!!
I select Manual partitioning, and then I get a blank screen for a split second (with some one-line warning/error message that I don't have time to read!), and then a screen with 'Starting up the partitioner', and a progress bar stuck at 52%.
If I boot in expert install mode, after pressing Manual partitioning I get back to the screen where I can select what step to run. It looks like the partition manager has quit with some error, however neither /var/log/syslog, /var/log/partman, or dmesg show what the error is. Luckily /dev/md3 was up, so I mounted it, and copied the logs there, see the attachment (inst.tar.gz).
Any idea what is going on? Best regards, --Edwin
