 Posted: Mon Jul 15, 2002 7:55 am Post subject: grub install & raid arrays |
 |
|
Had a problem during installation, trying to setup grub as in the installation docs. This was on an old Compaq Proliant with a Smart 2SL raid card. Had to do a "modprobe cpqarray" in the beginning.
The fun part started when trying to setup grub, as it couldn't find any hds. Dropped out of grub to the chrooted shell, did a mount, and it showed nothing. Had to log in to a not chrooted shell to be able to see my arrays, "/dev/ida/c0d*/*". Solved it by doing an "emerge lilo", mounting the boot partition from the not chrooted shell, copying lilo.conf to /etc, and running /mnt/gentoo/sbin/lilo. That saved the install.
But the array devices should be visible from the chrooted shell, or what ?
Still can't setup grub, guess I have to make a custom device map, or something.... |

Thread is almost 2mo old so hopefully you got it working .
see : https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=3926&highlight=proliant
In addition to the --stage2 syntax in grub, I created a device map:
| Code: |
(hd0) /dev/ida/c0d0
|
(btw, this is on a Proliant 3000 with the Smart-2dh controller) |
