Firing up the installer in expert mode, I found it easy enough to get the partitioner to show me:
--- [!!] Partition disks ... IDE1 master (hda) 82.3 GB ExcelStor etc etc #2 primary 81.8 GB raid #1 primary 509.9MB swap swap IDE1 master (hdc) 82.3 GB ExcelStor etc etc #2 primary 81.8 GB raid #1 primary 509.9MB swap swap RAID1 device #0 - 228.7 MB Software RAID device #1 primary 81.8GB lvm --- However, when I then select "Configure the logical volume manager" -> Yes -> Modify volume groups -> Create volume groups it says no physical volumes were found. And dropping back to the partitioner, the raid device just shows a 81GB partition (no "lvm"), which when selected has "do not use". Is something going wrong here, or am I just not doing things in the right order or missing some crucial step ? I'm a bit suspicious of that 228.7MB size. The machine (dual 933MHz P3) has had no problems with a couple of beta4 installs on it in the past (but only with one 40GB drive and trivial partitioning... this is my fist attempt at raid/lvm) Thanks for any tips. -- Tim Day - www.timday.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
