Choose to load 2100S RAID driver from disk. Continue, Installer links SCSI and RAID drivers correctly. Select language and keyboard type. Choose workstation install type and manual disk configuration. The DiskDruid utility allows me to allocate disk correctly (different partitioning didn't affect outcome). At no time while using DiskDruid did the "next" button become active. Result is I have to abort the installation; there is no way to continue. Thoughts? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from RedHat Linux 7.1 2. Load drivers from expert mode 3. Select installation type (workstation 4. Choose manual disk config with DiskDruid 5. Define disk partitions Actual Results: Unable to continue because "Next" button stay greyed out. Expected Results: "Next" button should be active and it is selected to continue with installation. Additional info:
What partitions did you make? You are required to make at least a root "/" and a swap partition.
I created a root volume /, two swap volumes (~512MB ea), and a /u0 volume. All volumes are created from RAID devices.
Ok. Is / on a RAID 5 device? LILO cannot boot from a RAID 5 volume, so you'll need to make a /boot partition that either isn't RAID, or is RAID 0 or 1.
