 |
|
Hello,
I just built my new home server and installed Gentoo (x86_64 hardened) on it. Now i'm facing some boot problems. Here's how I partitioned the disks:
/dev/md0 = boot (/dev/sde1 & /dev/sdf1) <- superblock v. 0.9 /// IGNORE THIS! I'm using usb-stick for grub, kernel and initramfs!
/dev/md1 = / (/dev/sde2 & /dev/sdf2) <- superblock v. 1.2
Now my problem is that all disks in the box are connected to IBM M1015 HBA card, which is cross-flashed to LSI9211-8i in IT mode. The card uses mpt2sas driver.
I can see the card getting initialized and detecting drives that are connected to it, but the array never gets detected.
During installation, I created initramfs with:
| Code: | | genkernel --mdadm --install initramfs |
Boot fails to kernel panic, VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown block....
Ill add my .config, grub.conf etc. when I get home. |
