Attached traceback automatically from anaconda.
This is probably fallout from <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=364901>. At some point I need to wipe the metadata from the drives and start fresh. Anaconda looks like it's seeing both the fakeraid and the mdraid metadata near the end, which is what I'm assuming is breaking Anaconda. *** Bug 494027 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 493699 *** Created attachment 341234 [details]

I have a RAID 5 (using motherboard chipset, Intel Matrix, with 3 drives SATA) configuration plus a PATA drive on another motherboard chipset controller, JMicron. The motherboard is an ASUS P5B Plus Vista edition. From the Asus specs: Southbridge 6 xSATA 3 Gb/s ports Intel Matrix Storage Technology Support RAID 0,1,5,10 JMicron® JMB363 PATA and SATA controller 1 xUltraDMA 133/100/66 for up to 2 PATA devices 1 xInternal SATA 3.0 Gb/s port 1 xExternal SATA 3.0 Gb/s port (SATA On-the-Go) Support RAID 0,1,JBOD (by 1x External SATA & 1x Internal SATA) I don't mind that Anaconda doesn't recognize the RAID 5 (this is a dual boot system and in there I have Windows Vista), but I need to install Linux on the PATA drive. I had no problems with previous versions of Fedora (that didn't recognize RAID 5 but installed ok). I solved my problem disabling the RAID 5 controller in the BIOS options and installing again. Of course this way the RAID 5 cannot be seen by Linux, but it couldn't recognize it anyway. If the controller is disabled, the Fedora 11 system boots and runs well. If I enable the controller, the system boots, the init 5 login screen appears, but the system hangs at that point. |
