Lilo and Software RAID boot problem
« on: October 17, 2001, 12:29:49 AM »
SME 5 installs fine, but when it re-boots and attempts to run Lilo it stops and just displays  "LI"

I've tried it on two different machine (two totally different MB, CPU, and RAM) and 4 different HDs. I tried installing it on both a pair of Seagate 20gig HDs and a pair of 20gig Fujitsus on both machines. i.e. both machines had a total of 4 HD attached to them total.

SME works fine with just one of the HDs connected but I really want the RAID for the backup. I am too cheap to get a real RAID card, and a RAID card wouldn't fit in one of the cases anyways (book pc).

Any info on how to get the RAID to work. It worked fine for me with v4 but I think that the blades are nice and the other new stuff is cool.

TIA
