I am doing raid 1 on the same disk (not very good but better that doing no raid) So, I followed the instructions but doing them on the same disk (except install MBR on only one disk) and I obtained the message at the boot :Multiple active partitionsAfterwards, I removed the boot flag on the second partitions making the raid 1 array, the new message isBooting...Missing OS Is it really p
I have a motherboard with an Intel ICH9R RAID chip. I have an existing RAID 5 setup over three disks which is NTFS formatted. I'm dual booting and I'd like to be able to access the RAID device in both Linux and Windows (and possibly OSX86, if I can ever get the darn thing to work).
After a restart which stalled, I did a hard reboot and now mdadm can't see the RAID 6 array anymore, LVM can't find the volume which was on that raid array.
Before my installation of 12.04 server I read a lot on the forum about raid install and problems with Grub not being able to boot from anything other than a raid 1 array. However I had no problem at all with installation on a raid 6 array (5 disks) using mdadm.
What I did using Alternate 12.04 CD:
1. Choose Manual partion
2. Wipe all 5 drives
3. Assign all drives to a Raid 6 array
4.
I currently have openSuse 11.0 installed on a software dmraid raid5 volume. Today I tried to install openSuse 11.2 instead, but I got stuck in the partitioning. I have a /home partition which is also a software dmraid raid5 volume and I want this partition to be left untouched.
I have Dell Poweredge R710 server with PERC H700 Integrated RAID controller. Currently there are 4 SAS 300GB disks in RAID-10 array exposing single volume of 600GB. Server is running VMware ESXi 5.1.
I have 4 new SAS 300GB disks that I would like to add to this server to gain ~ 1.2 TB RAID-10 volume.
I wonder if I can do this expansion without loosing data on existing disks?
Hey Guys,

I have a 5-disk Intel RAID 5 along with a 6th boot disk with /, /boot, and swap.
What I was planning to do was mount the Intel RAID partitions (which I've added with fdisk) so that the 6th disk /home, /var, /srv, etc. link to the RAID on the other 5 disks.
Hello All,
This on behalf of someone I am trying to help with getting Ubuntu installed.
Ubuntu 9.04 comes up nicely from the live CD, but it seems it cannot detect his hard drives, theres nothing under locations / computer. (It can see USB sticks, so it is working).
It's a RAID setup, and the device shows up under device manager as:
