Thread: 12.04 LTS with 2 RAID/LVM's


i have installed 12.04 lts on machine has 5 hard drives. used alternate cd set 2 - 500 gb drives system raid1 lvm's (a system logical volume , swap logical volume). works well, i've reboot system , boots fine. when create raid5 array 3 - 2tb drives mdadm array creates fine , i'm able format /dev/md1 ext3 file system (/dev/md0 raid1). fine until go reboot computer. computer doesn't reboot , hangs right after grub boot menu.

way can machine boot physically remove 2 tb drives. before reboot i've updated mdadm.conf file added array , have run update-grub.

i'm stumped! appreciated.

are sure mdadm.conf correct? did update hand or let update itself? not sure if need update initramfs too.

boot might stop if second array not working though / on first array.

, speaking of first array , lvm, don't see point having configured way is, root , swap. change swap size, have gives rest of raid1 array root without installing lvm.

use lvm more logical volumes, not root , swap. , if want option expand size in future without reinstalling anything. not sure idea was/is...
