Here's what I've got
1. Dapper ( the alternate CD )
2. Two sata HD's
Here's what I want
1. Software RAID 1
2. ext3 for /boot
3. ext3 for /
4. LVM for everything else
Here's what happens
1. I partition the drive for RAID
1. 100 for /boot
2. 1 G for /
3. everything else
2. I select setup raid
1. it builds all the md devices ( 0, 1, 2 )
3. I setup LVM
1. mark RAID set 2 for LVM
4. I select "setup LVM" ( something like that )
Step 4 gives me an error message.
Error informing the kernal about modifications to partition
/dev/md/1p1 -- invalid argument. This means Linux won't know about
any changes you made to /dev/md/1p1untile you reboot -- so you
shouldn't mount it or use it in any way before rebooting.
In my case /dev/md/1p1 is my root partition and set as ext3. I have
tried installing Ubuntu several times. Each time I get the same error
message. What's going on here?
