Intel Matrix Storage Manager option ROM v8.5.2.1002 ICH 10R/DO I'm also not finding a RAID 1 volume on a newer computer: Intel Rapid Storage Technology - Option ROM - 12.7.0.1936 I previously installed F21 Beta onto this volume but now I can't seem to find it when booting with the final Live image. On the newer computer, I deleted the RAID 1 volume and then re-created it. After that, when I booted from the Fedora 21 Live image, the RAID 1 device (/dev/md126) was created as expected. I have noticed that the default kernel command line for Fedora Live Workstation 21 includes the following: rd.md=0 Is it OK to edit the kernel command line at boot time and remove that parameter?

You should be fine removing that line for the live image. Does this still happen with F22?

There is an existing Fedora 21 installation on a RAID1 volume that has been created from Physical Device IDs 0 and 1. Looking at /proc/mdstat, I would expect to see a device named md126 for the RAID1 device. In Fedora 21 Live: no device is created whether or not rd.md=0 is present In Fedora 22 Live: no device is created whether or not rd.md=0 is present I then deleted the RAID1 volume (which contained the existing Fedora 21 installation) and created a new RAID 1 volume. In Fedora 21 Live: raid1 md126 device is created whether or not rd.md=0 is present In Fedora 22 Live: raid1 md126 device is created whether or not rd.md=0 is present It seems that F22 Live doesn't create an md126 device if there is a GPT on the RAID1 volume. F22 Live will create an md126 device if there is an MBR (i.e. disklabel type: dos) on the RAID1 volume. It took a little effort to get Anaconda to install onto a raid1 device with an MBR since the disk size is 2.73 TB. I created the partitions with fdisk before running Anaconda. Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
Description of problem: When I boot from Fedora 21 Workstation Live, no RAID device is created for the IMSM volume that I am using in Fedora 20. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mdadm-3.3.2-1.fc21.x86_64 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create live USB from Fedora 21 Workstation Live iso. 2. Boot live USB. Actual results: [root@localhost liveuser]# cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid0] [raid1] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [raid10] md127 : inactive sda[0](S) 2828 blocks super external:imsm unused devices: <none> Expected results: There should be a RAID 1 device.
