Hi, i was trying to install CentOS 5.1 on new machine based on Intel Q35 desktop board, witch 2 SATA disks (configured as RAID 1) , 8GB RAM and Intel Core2 QUADCORE. The first problem was with install - it hangs before installer startup at ACPI messages. So i installed it with ACPI=off switch.
The first problem is : Dec 7 09:54:01 vmhost1 kernel: BIOS bug, no explicit IRQ entries, using default mptable. (tell your hw vendor) Dec 7 09:54:01 vmhost1 kernel: Processors: 1 Which kernel should i use? I have default installed kernel.
The second problem is with LVM (probably raid on board - in bios i switched in sata mode to raid, and created in raid utility RAID1 volume from those 2 disks:
/dev/sdb1 [ 101.94 MB] Found duplicate PV hpGVb3U5Q0lxFe1LN6eJpSCJSWs0xfpu: using /dev/sdb2 not /dev/sda2 /dev/sdb2 [ 297.99 GB] LVM physical volume [root@vmhost1 archive]# What does it means and how can i fix this?
Thanks a lot
