Hello,
I am rather new to FAI. But I am impresst by this great tool.
Especially by the documentation that commes with it.
But I am suprised I do not find any working example on how to set up a
simple RAID 1 with UEFI boot.
I read all the discussions in this mailinglist (found two threads

Hi,
There's probably a few different ways to do this. Here is a fairly generic
disk_config example I created last time I was working on FAI.
I haven't used the config n a while, but it's should be some inspiration
even if it doesn't work for you as it is:
$ cat disk_config/FAIBASE_EFI_RAID
# de
Hey,
Just a note that I've found that some hardware doesn't like /boot/efi being
on RAID1. Which is rather disappointing.
But otherwise, the examples that Justin provided look very similar to what
I've succesfully used (although sometimes without the RAID1 for /boot/efi!)
Cheers,
Andrew

TL;DR: IMO having /boot/uefi on (sw) RAID1 is not worth the headaches.
Long version follows.
That's quite normal. You should use older RAID format that places

at the beginning. And even so it's risky, since one of the part

Hello Justin,
thanks for the quick answer.
I tried to use your disk_config. And I get a a raid as expected.
But the script for settign up grup [ config/scipts/GRUP_EFI/10-setup ]
fails.
Hence I end up with a system tha can not boot.
What I find in [ scripts.log ]:
Hi,
I think we do have some customisation in the various scripts, including
GRUB_EFI/10-setup, that may account for it.
As our script for grub is quite custom to our use case, I'm not sure I can
share it I'm afraid. But, that is where you need to start investigating.
This is from vague recollect
