Hi,
I install Debian with the installer Etch RC1 on a G4 server having two
hard disks, the system and the swap will be on partitions in software RAID1.
I used this trick for the RAID part :
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=397973
- Firstly, do the NewWorld partitions have to be on the RAID1 or not?
For this installation, I parted the two discs like this :
hda1 APPLE 32.3 kB
hda2 NewWorld 5 MB
hda3 RAID 79 GB
hda4 RAID 1GB
hdb1 APPLE 32.3 kB
hdb2 NewWorld 5 MB
hdb3 RAID 79 GB
hdb4 RAID 1GB
md0 --> RAID1 (hda3 + hdb3) --> EXT3 for root
md1 --> RAID1 (hda4 + hdb4) --> SWAP
The big problem, it is that with the first reboot Yaboot did not find
the kernel. The installation is finished but Yaboot is badly configured.
- Below the configuration of Yaboot, which is what is incorrect?
boot=/dev/hda2
partition=0
root=/dev/md0
timeout=50
install=/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot
magicboot=/usr/lib/yaboot/ofboot
enablecdboot
image=/boot/vmlinux
label=Linux
read-only
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
image=/boot/vmlinux.old
label=old
read-only
initrd=/boot/initrd.img.old
According to me partition should be : partition=2 ?
Regards.
