Hi,
I just received a new server (HP DL180G5) with 12x 1TB HDs and I bumped into fdisks 2TB limits... Since this is an entry level server, I can't use the classic HP bootable utilities to create smaller volumes et can only create a big RAID6. I found out that: using parted, labelling it gpt and creating the partitions would do the trick. But, what about grub? I read that it does not support gpt... Or is there another way to do it? By example, do you think I could boot on a live CentOS, install HP RAID tools on it (is it possible?) and then create volumes...?
Thx, JD
