Package: installation-reports
Version: 2.38
Severity: normal
So I thought for sure this would work:
PXE boot the installation system
http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/images/daily/netboot/netboot.tar.gz
Do the install, and configure the two 18GB SCSI disks as follows:
/dev/md0 raid1 swap
/dev/md1 raid0 xfs /
Each raid volume is made up of two partitions, and those two volumes
are the only ones on the system.
Installation completed, however on stable/lenny, I get an error trying
to install grub to the MBR of the first disk. It worked (or appeared to
work) on this latest testing version. Anyway, it cannot boot that way,
which I sort of figured, so I intended to PXE boot the kernel and initrd
all along. I set that up, but it fails to mount the root filesystem.
Problem 1: It fails to load the sd-mod module, so there are no SCSI
disks,
so of course it can't initialize the raid subsystem and mount /.
Problem 2: On testing/squeeze, even if I load sd-mod by hand, and then
try to re-run scripts/local-top/mdadm, I get a bunch of errors saying
there is no raid signature on sda or sdb. Bizarre. You're stuck at
that point, there's nothing you can do.
I was able to hack the initramfs on lenny and get the netbooting to
work.
Just adding the sd-mod to the modules file didn't get it done, so I
grossly hacked scripts/local-top/mdadm in the initramsfs to load sd-
mod and
then wait for 15 seconds. That seemed to do the trick, although it
still doesn't find the root filesystem right away, it goes asleep for
10-15 seconds, then finds it and proceeds.
I built the initramfs with the following command on the system using
rescue-mode:
mkinitramfs -r /dev/md1 -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-2-686-netboot
2.6.26-2-686

Comments/Problems:
I was able to hack my way around the problem in lenny. I'm wondering
how
to fix this in squeeze, where I get the 'no raid signature on
superblock'
stuff.
