Alpine 2.02 (LRH 1266 2009-07-14) |
New server based on CentOS 6.3 x64.
2 SATA disk already previously used for testing porpouse (W7 and Linux).
Configuration with RAID 1 SW
Already installed a similar config to this and similar servers (Fujitsu
Siemens Econel 100s2)
I can install without problem, but no way to boot the system. Really, if I
use the search Legacy options ... from the SuperGrub2Disk I can boot and
use the installed system like usually I do with similar systems.
But no way for me to boot directly from the local disks.
Reinstalled 3 times recreating/reformatting partitions
Used "bootrec.exe /FixMbr" from Win 7 DVD to clean the boot sectors
Below what I think can be useful:
# grub-install /dev/sda
The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly.
# grub-install /dev/sdb
The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly.
# df
