Which Apaptec model, specifically? Some of the Adaptec SATA cards are fakeraid. I want to know if your card is fakeraid or real RAID. That may have bearing on this issue. > I wish you the best (similar setup here and bad experience with adaptec > raid cards) :-( > > As per the 4 TiB issue. I just have reviewed the wikipedia article about > MBR and forgot the limit of 2 TiB for a "bootable" partition. I've never run into these issues because I intentionally avoid them. I always create a small /boot of about 100MB at the start of the disk and stick the bootloader in the MBR. Every BIOS can handle bootstrapping such a setup. I thought the OP originally said he has a separate small /boot, so I'm still not sure what his exact issue is. Thus what I'm trying to nail down exactly which Adaptec HBA he's got. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
