Update: I tried this configuration and it worked: sda,sdb 36GB SCSI LVD sd[ab]1: 2048MB software RAID sd[ab]2: 512MB software RAID sd[ab]3: Grow to fill remaining, software RAID md0: sd[ab]1, ext3, mounted to / md1: sd[ab]2, ext3, mounted to /var md2: sd[ab]3, ext3, mounted to /other The ONLY change is that I used 2048MB for each part of md0 instead of 1536mb partitions. What SCSI controller? Also, where do the cylinder boundaries lie dependent on the two different partition sizes? The SCSI Controller is a SYM53C800. I don't know how to answer your question about cylinder boundaries (unless you can tell me how to get that information) except to tell you that the two HDs are identical. They are stock from HP and the server model is an LP1000R. I have run into the exact same problem again. On an identically configured LP1000R, I get "Operating System not found" after using the same floppy I did to fix the first machine. I am beginning to wonder if it has something to do with both machines being factory fresh until I've tried to install them a couple times. I am attaching the ks.cfg that I used for both installs. Created attachment 40929 [details]
Kickstart file used when bug occured, both times.
Problem appears to be related to bad scsi controllers on the machine. Very strange symptom, as machine acted normal if booted via rescue floppy. Giveaway should have been when the SCSI BIOS never appeared during POST. My apologies for this waste of time. |
