Have just attempted to do a clean install of FC1 and set up software RAID 1 during the install process. I have 2x 120Gig IDE drives which I want to RAID1 and then split into 3 partitions (/, /boot and swap). I want /boot to be the first partition (if it's not the first partition it ends up getting the error "system may not be bootable, blah, blah"). In a non-raid configuration this is not a problem, if I flat as EXT3 it seems to recognize that /boot should be "first" and always shuffles it to the first partition (if I don't specify the partition as /boot it still seems to shuffle it off sometimes to a higher partition, though not always). However, if I go and try to select SOFTWARE RAID as the partition type, the small partition which would be boot once I set up the raid ends up getting pushed up to the 2nd or 3rd partition which then spits up the error message again. So far the only solution I've found is to run the installer, partition the 1st drive, cancel the install once partition table has been written, start the install again, partition the 2nd drive, cancel again and then start the install a 3rd time at which point I can change the existing partition types to Software RAID, raid the drives and complete the install. There must be an easier way, help :-) Cheers, >>>>> Mike <<<<<
