Subject: booting from a HW RAID volume
Date: Wed, 26 Jan 2005 11:46:03 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <41F7D75B.1040806@mail.fsix.com> (raw)
Hello,
I'm using a 3Ware 9500 12 Hardware RAID controller that has 12 of 250GB
S-ATA drives (total storage = 2.75TB). To my 64bit FC3 box, this looks
like a single huge SCSI disk (/dev/sda). I used parted to create GPT
partitions on it, (because nothing else would work on a volume that
big). This seems to work fine, except that grub doesn't seem to
recognize GPT partitions.
So here's my question: Does anyone know a way to boot from huge volumes
(where "huge" = >2TB)? even if it doesn't involve grub, or GPT, I'm
open to suggestions. Any clues?
Thanks!
