You must first make make the RAID partition and after that you made the partition. Think about the raid as it is behind the file system and partition table. For example, let's say you need a software raid 1 between sda1 and sda2. You need to configure the 2 partiton to raid 1, and you will have a bing partition that is at a half of the size of boath hard disks. Then, on that partition you made your /boot, /home/, /var etc.. partition.Al of the operations of the partition maded on that disk will be automaticaly mirrored On 7/27/06, Dale Cassidy <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
I have a problem understanding the raid option. I am installing fedora core 4. I can't get passed the disk partitioning part. When I partition the drive for server. I setup my /, /usr, /var, /temp, /home, /swap. when I click on the raid button. It wants to create a raid partition. What I want to do is clone the drive to the second drive. I have 2 250 g sata 2 . The options in partitioning is ext2, ext3, swap, raid option. What is the right way to setup a the partitions and use raid to clone the drive. The error I get when I try to clone the drive is, The source drive selected has partitions on it which are not of type software raid. These partitions will have to be removed before this drive can be cloned.
