The GRUB section specifies that you should set root to something like: /dev/ataraid/discX/partY Unfortunately, this doesn't work for some reason. You have to use: /dev/ataraid/dXpY Note: I have devfsd, ataraid, pdcraid (I use a Promise controller) all compiled into the kernel and not modules. devfsd is even rigged to load on boot. Still doesn't work. Linux kernel will say that it can't load that root partition. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. edit /boot/grub/grub.conf 2. set root to /dev/ataraid/disc0/part0 3. reboot 4. watch it fail to boot 5. at the grub screen, change the boot params to root=/dev/ataraid/d0p0 6. watch it boot Actual Results: I was magically transported to a state of bliss and the universe became clear to me.
great! i have been waiting for this fix. I will add it in asap.
