[RAID] Problem with install 11.10 - problem with device-mapper

Asked by Marek Majchrowskiu

Hi,

I try to install ubuntu server 11.10 x86_64 on workstation with fake-raid.

After question to enable SATA Raid devices, there is no visible disk in partman.

In log I have:

When I try to activate manually dmraid I get:

$ dmraid -ay

ERROR: device-mapper target type "mirror" is not in the kernel
RAID set "isw_beddbbijib_DATA" was not activated

I don't have any software raid created on those disks. I don't know why it create:

Are you using RAID1 or RAID10?

See this link:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/71466/raid-1-array-not-found-in-server-installer

If what they say is correct, the driver for mirroring (RAID1) was left out of the 11.10 alternate installer for whatever reason.

If you can, try a RAID0 setup and see if that works.

However, the 11.04 alternate installer worked for me. I'd imagine 11.04 server should work. You can install that and then do an in place upgrade to 11.10.
