What did the storage configuration look like, exactly? I'd guess that you put one partition on each disk, combined those in a RAID1 MD array, made than an LVM physical volume, and then created filesystems and swap on LVs. But that's a lot of guesses. Did you use MBR partitions or GPT? Are you booting under BIOS or UEFI? Where do your partitions start? Did you create a standard MD RAID volume and LVM or a partitionable RAID volume and partitions?
No. Brand new machine, pulled it out of the box and racked it. NOTHING on the internal SSDs. Made an md RAID 0 on the raw disks - /dev/sda /dev/sdb. No partitions, nothing. However, when I bring it up, fdisk shows an MBR with no partitions. I can, however, mount /dev/md127p3 as /mnt/sysimage, and all is there.
Did I need to make a single partition, on each drive, and then make the RAID 1 out of *those*? I don't think I need to have /boot not on a RAID.
