The only parameter I introduce in the boot option is: _linux26_ - During install, both hard drives were partitioned exactly in the same order and size: First /dev/hda1, next /dev/hdc1; second /dev/hda2, next /dev/hdc2... - Most of the install was perfect. Everything worked as spected: network, partition, RAID 1, even boot loader worked (GRUB). PROBLEM: REBOOT =============== - Once I try to get into my new Debian system, I get an error related to fsck. As I have done a 'fresh install', there is nothing I can do from here. - I guess there is something missing in the custom kernel 2.6 image. - Please note the lines starting by 'mdadm:'. I am surprised mdadm tries to look for /dev/md/X instead of /dev/mdX which would be more logical... - One more comment: I tried to install the same linux26 system in ONE of the hard drives, by NOT switching on the second one: and everything went perfect. - I guess this is the last step before being able to run a RAID Debian system directly from Sarge installer 'out-of-the-box'. :-) - Thanks a lot for an awesome work!!!

Fsck failure on reboot. Reply-To: Sergio <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi Joey, I have tried once again to set the RAID system... and IT WORKED!!! I used a Pre-RC2 image to do the test. Hopefully it works for other filesystems as well, meaning that RAID bugs are definitely closed... Thanks a lot for your effort!!!
