Hopefully this makes sense.
I replaced sdd drive and that went without problem, but after replacing sda, the drive with boot partition and MBR, system stalled at "veryfying dmi pool data". So I inserted debian CD and went with rescue mode. I haven't used it so I have some questions. I'm offered to reassemble RAID. Is it safe to use auto reconfigure option or should I assemble all three manually? If I should go with manually, what to do with md0? It's RAID1 for boot partition and now there is only one drive. Should I recreate md1 and md2 with three drives? Would that work? After this is done successfully, I assume I should go with: # vgscan # vgchange -a y volume_group_name and mount manually all partitions (there is root and swap, so I guess I only need to mount root). Am I right? Then, after creating partition table and adding new drive into RAID, would simple: # grub-install /dev/sda do the job? Anything else to think about?
