Subject: software for making initrd's with raid support
Date: Thu, 13 Mar 2008 00:56:41 +0100 [thread overview]

Hi
I have been looking at making my system working with raid, and booting
from raid. I succeded, but I had to hack a number of things, including
making a new initrd by hand.
I used mkinitrd, but it did not treat sw raid, only in the md sense.
this is a redhat/mandriva/pclinuxos(keldix thing, I wonder if it also
used in the dbian/ubuntu world.
So what do you use for generating initrd? And does it work out of the
box?
Are there any installers that have support for raid1/raid10?
BTW, I updated the howto on preventing against failure caused
by a single bad disk, and I think it now kind of reflects
something that works.
best regards
Keld
