Hello!
Have some problems with installing gentoo on my acer s7 laptop with "fake" bios raid0 onboard.
Followed handbook on installation+guide for dualboot with ReFind, last kernel version used.
On live cd boot all is ok and partitons on my disks are showed like /dev/md126p*,but After reboot on actual installed os i have an error,that it cant find dev with specified partuuid and that it
"could not mount specified root, try again"
and there are no /dev/md* devices
my lspci

Denas,
Welcome to Gentoo.
Please tell us how you made your kernel and initrd.
As you are using fakeraid, you need an initrd to make your raid visible to the kernel.
As you don't have any /dev/md* devices, eiher the kernel has no raid support or the initrd cannot assemble your raid set.
Fakeraid is in general, a bad thing. You should only use it if Windows and Linux must share the same raid set.

Tnx for welcome and for fast answer,but not my 1st gentoo installation. first time notebook with raid.
About fake-raid, im agree,but i want to keep Win working.
initramfs builded after kernel with genkernel without compression (tryed --mdadm,or without, no difference)

Tryed to rebuild kernel and initrd with configuration of kernel from livedvd or minimal-cd. Only changed kernel command line(initrd=/boot/initramfs.cpio)
And this gives me no result 
Where I am wrong?( |

Denas,
Get into your chroot and post the answers to the following.
Exactly how did you build the kernel and initrd and subsequently install them to /boot?
The commands you used should still be in /root/.bash_history. Please copy/paste them.
Please post your bootloader configuration file and the output of
Until we know exactly what you did, we can't tell what the problem is.

My last try with

mv initramfs-genkernel-x86_64-3.17.7-gentoo initramfs.cpio

kernel config file here
https://yadi.sk/d/Xpetp8xAdipVT
ReFind is looking for vmlinuz files in disk partitions to add em into boot menu for loading without additional params. So I renamed kernel and added way to initrd in my build-in kernel command line.
Tryed to boot with dodmraid param,but it gave me no help too. |

Denas,
I must have missed your Dec 31 post, sorry about that.
Can you take a photo of the kernel panic and post it somewhere please?
Just before the panic, the kernel should list all the block devices it can see. I'm interested in that list.

Denas,
https://yadi.sk/i/ltYix_t-e8WT8 tells | Quote: | | !! Could not find root block device in . |
That is significant for what it does not say. Before the full stop, the kernel should have listed every block device it can see.
There are none listed here. This is to be expected if you need an initrd and do not list it as the modules te reach your HDD are not available.
Thats odd as the rest of the page shows lots of HDD drivers loading, under Loading Modules.
That suggests your system is still finding an initrd and loading modules but not the one(s) you need.
https://yadi.sk/i/2_6h5JLAe8WaH appears to show that you are in a recovery shell.
The kernel has also found three SCSI devices as the line above the # prompt says | Quote: | | ... [sdc1 Attached SCSI removable disk |
Going back to your lspci you have | Code: | | 00:1f.2 RAID bus controller: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile SATA Controller [RAID mode] (rev 04) |
Which is a fakeraid device. However, you can use it either with dmraid, which is the tradional way to drive fakeraid, or with mdadm raid.
Which you need depends on what you used when you created your raid sets.
You won't want to hear this now but fakeraid in any form is a bad idea - the only use case is if you need windows and linux to share the raid.
You should switch the device bacd to it AHCI mode and use mdadm raid from the outset. Thats a reinstall though.
Anyway, boot back to your rescue shell and find out what you have in /dev/mapper which is where fakeraid devices will appear and what /dev/md* devices you have, which is how mdadm devices will appear.

Denas,
As /dev/mapper is empty and your raid devices are all /dev/md... it looks like you are using mdadm raid.
You have two raid sets /dev/md126 which is partioned and /dev/md127 whicn is not, at least, not yet.
To have root on raid, your initrd must assemble the raid set before root can be mounted.
Your image https://yadi.sk/i/2_6h5JLAe8WaH shows the kernel parts of both mdadm and device mapper raid loading, so it looks like you hove everything you need.
Your last post was made from gentoo@livecd which is only a part of the picture.
Boot into your own system (no CD until you get to the state you show in https://yadi.sk/i/2_6h5JLAe8WaH
At the # promt, try
| Code: | ls /dev/mapper
ls /dev/md* |
hopefully you get the same as your post above. If not, the initrd is not assembling your raid set, so your root filesystem does not exist, therefore it can't be mounted.

Yep,sry I readed your question incorrect.
https://yadi.sk/i/0Q-eXGPVeBGkC
here is from rescue shell. If there were some md* devices like in livecd, i probably woldn't ask for help) |

Denas,
| Code: | | !! Could not find root block device in . |
Hints that you have the kernel driver for the | Code: | | 00:1f.2 RAID bus controller: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile SATA Controller [RAID mode] (rev 04) |
missing from your kernel.
The kernel should be able to see the underlying /dev/sd.. and your optical drive.
You need and you may need
| Code: | | CONFIG_SATA_AHCI_PLATFORM=y |
too.
As you have an initrd modules will work for you too. You will need to rebuild both the kernel and the initrd if you have to make changes.

I had
CONFIG_SATA_AHCI=y
CONFIG_SATA_AHCI_PLATFORM=m
in my last .conf, that i posted. Now I rebuilded it with both "y", after loaded with kernel param "domdadm", anyway, it didnt help(
Additionaly,tryed to use
mdadm --detail --scan >> /etc/mdadm.conf
While im on my installed os, i can use
mdadm --auto-detect, then it will add /dev/md0, but it's not usefull |

Besides the fakeraid thing, what does lspci -k run from the live-disk show? Check the modules it's using to drive your motherboard hardware and disk-controller, then build those in to the kernel (Y not M.) You should be able to run with the other types of controller not even compiled-in (N), which makes for a leaner build.
We usually build-in SCSI disk support as well (for sda and USB drives) but not USB itself (modular is nicer there, unless you need USB to boot.) Some boards use PATA too, but that's fallen off in the last couple of years. Also build-in ACPI support.
You also need your rootfs driver, but I'll leave you in Neddy's capable hands, since I don't know mdadm or fakeraid, and that requires an initr(d,amfs) if the rootfs is on a mapped device. |

SMBus is a type of embedded bus, similar to I2C; it's not surprising you have no attached devices, though sometimes you get embedded sensors and the like using that type of bus.
I'd build-in: ivb_uncore pcieport ahci (Y) (i realise you have ahci already)
and modularise: xhci_hcd ehci_pci (M) unless you need to boot from USB
Also build-in whatever Neddy tells you to, eg you'll need device-mapper, which is under "Device Drivers" ->
"Multiple devices driver support (RAID and LVM)", as well as file-system support like ext4.
I have stuff modularised under there, with Device-Mapper itself built-in, since that covers lvm.
Excuse me if you've addressed all these already. Whatever happens, listen to Neddy. :-)
BTW I wouldn't use snd_hda_intel if I were you; just disable it altogether and use a decent soundcard or USB headset instead. |

Device mapper and fs is already done. All unnecesary things ill exclude later,when ill get working kernel.
