Hi All,
I'm currently trying to install centos 5.4 x86-64bit on a raid 1, so if one the 2 disks fails the server will still be available. i installed grub on /dev/sda using the advanced grub configuration option during the install. after the install is done i boot in linux rescue mode , chroot the filesystem and copy grub to both drives using: grub>root (hd0,0) grub>setup (hd0) grub>root (hd1,0 grub>setup (hd1) grub>quit
then reboot, but is still get the error : disk boot faillure, insert linux install disk. does anyone now what i'm doing wrong? here is a copy of my partition scheme.
Disk /dev/sda: 251.0 GB, 251000193024 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30515 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
