If you would like to use one of those boot loaders make sure to add the option -metadata=0.90 to the /boot array during RAID installation. GRUB Legacy, LILO) will not support any 1.x metadata versions, and instead require the older version, 0.90. Syslinux only supports version 1.0, and therefore requires the -metadata=1.0 option. 1.2) when combined with an initramfs, which has replaced in Arch Linux with mkinitcpio. GRUB supports the default style of metadata currently created by mdadm (i.e. GRUB when used in conjunction with GPT requires an additional BIOS boot partition. This tutorial will use Syslinux instead of GRUB.
Creating the swap space on a separate array is not intended to provide additional redundancy, but instead, to prevent a corrupt swap space from rendering the system inoperable, which is more likely to happen when the swap space is located on the same partition as the root directory. Many tutorials treat the swap space differently, either by creating a separate RAID1 array or a LVM logical volume. dev/md0: PTUUID="992ec57a" PTTYPE="dos"What I'm thinking of trying is possibly this.Note: If you want extra performance, just let the kernel use distinct swap partitions as it does striping by default.

#Softraid error software
I was really excited with the idea of doing software RAID so I'm hoping to get this fixed without reloading and going back to non-RAID. I recall the Guided Partitioning did the following after setting up my software RAID0.
Any ideas how I might be able to fix this in grub or do I have to backout of software RAID 0? I tried messing with some of the hard drive settings in BIOS but I can't get past this error.
#Softraid error install
Everything went fine with the install but as soon as I rebooted I'm getting this error.Įrror: failure reading sector 0xb30 from 'fd0' I told the software to RAID 0 my two drives. So, during the install I noticed an option to do software RAID and choose that route.
Hi, I was reloading my linux box from scratch last night and decided to try software RAID 0 since I have two identical 75GB drives and figured this would provide a nice boost in read/write speeds.
