Linux softraid.Maybe it is related to: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F11_bugs#Kickstart_installations_cannot_reuse_existing_RAID_arraysNo. I am not doing a kickstart install. And I succesfully updated two other machines with F10 installed on Linux softraid, to F11. Something in Anaconda is failing to see the second and the third drive on a machine with the first drive being an IDE drive, and the 2nd and the 3rd drive being SCSI drives. It doesn't see the drives, but I can flip over to the ALT-F2 shell, and run mdadm --assemble --scan. mdadm ends up creating /dev/md125, /dev/md126, and /dev/md127 (!), rather than /dev/md[012], but I can mount them manually and see my existing F10 partitions. So, Anaconda is not even assembling my existing RAID arrays. I can assemble them manually, but Anaconda does not see them.2 dumb questions: 1 - Does your BIOS see the drives?
See above. I can see the bloody drives just fine, from the shell on ALT-F2.
2 - Have you tried doing an expert install?
I can't find documentation on the expert installation option in F11's install documentation. Earlier Fedoras had an expert boot option, but it no longer seems to be present.
