However ..... I was contemplating not installing 1.6 but rather 1.5, I'm really stoked on 1.5 its very stable for me. I've re-installed 1.6 about 8 times
So, If I wanted to run 1.5 Gamers would I still have to install mdadm, what do you think? Anybody brave enough?
Actually, i might just split my main OS drive in two and have a 1.6 and a 1.5 just as is. I'm just really happy with 1.5. On the other hand ... no body has replied to my "Installing 1.6 on same hard drive after 1.5 install" post. I don't know how sucessfull I'll be.
mdadm is built in to 1.6 gamers as well as support for many filesystems wrote a module called "filesystems" today. dmraid broke the O/S and will have to be rebuilt. Crash detected, not a big deal upgrade script fixed it but I will not have that.
I have 2 drives mirrored the worse case scenario is I lose 1 drive as the O/S views it 4 drives involved.
In your case (if it asks a question
do not do it and please post what it asked I have been through this prior)& will walk you through:
- Code: Select all
sudo mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1
replace with your raid devices the md0, sda etc.
In the example above md0 is the assigned raid device and sda, b is the drives you want assembled, if it goes through you will still have to make an entry in your fstab to have it auto mount at boot.
in any situation you will still have to have mdadm:
- Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install mdadm
