Re: Ubuntu Gutsy Tribe5 compatibility problems

Well, that's the problem... When I run the Gutsy Tribe5 liveCD and 
install dmraid, the devices don't show up in /dev/mapper.

If I use the Feisty Live DVD, the devices show up no problem.

so... I think its pretty clear that there's a bug here in the Gutsy 
dmraid pre-release...

dmraid also works if I delete my linux partitions, but then... I have no 
linux partitions.

I've posted the output from running dmraid in debug mode, but not sure 
what to do next.

I thought I should try Gutsy and report a problem before the release...

When installing Ubuntu on dmraid you install dmraid in the live CD 
environment to get access to the devices under /dev/mapper, but before 
you reboot you should chroot into your newly installed system and 
install dmraid into the system so that the initrd that grub uses when 
you reboot has dmraid installed.

     Not familiar with Ubuntu.
     Looks like an initrd flaw not activating the volumes...

     Any Ubuntu wizards ?
