How to install with RAID already installed for XP?
Hi all. 1st post. I currently dual boot with Ubuntu 9.04 but somehow have a difficult time with RAID. I'm not sure which RAID array was installed as it was setup by a computer shop. At 1st, they had RAID-0 with both 120Gb HDDs acting as one 240Gb. I had this reset to 2-120Gb HDDs that store date independently. There is a RAID influence as if one of the 120Gb HDDs is not plugged in, XP will boot slow if at all. I don't see any mirroring of data which would be, I think, RAID-1. The MB manual says it supports RAID-0 or RAID-1. But most say it acts like RAID-5. A 3rd HDD, 200Gb, was later installed. This is were Ubuntu is installed. I installed Ubuntu without RAID. It does boot normal; very fast but XP boots extremely slow now. I believe it's because there was a type of RAID installed long ago with XP, & that's why there are 2 XPs in the boot list which is listed below & is the current GRUB menu (boot selection startup page). So, is there something needed in installing openSUSE 11.1 to get the correct dual boot? I never could, nor could anyone else, figure this out in Ubuntu. Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28.11-generic Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28.11-generic (recovery mode) Ubuntu 9.04, memtest86+ Other operating systems: Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition This is how the PC is setup. XP is on C: (sda) & some info for RAID on G: (sdb). Both are 120Gb each (not 240Gb in RAID-0) & store data independently. F: (sdc) is where Ubuntu 9.04 in installed & is 200Gb. This HDD was installed long after the initial XP install, so, no RAID influence. I appreciate all suggestions.

RAID 5 would require 3 drives minimum. They could not have done RAID 5 with 2 120s. Ubuntu may be seeing them as 2 drives because the RAID array may be in firmware/software. If it is not a true hardware RAID, the OS will see the drives for what they are. -- mark54g ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mark54g's Profile: http://forums.opensuse.org/member.php?userid=24676 View this thread: http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php?t=414727

Your current configuration does not show any RAID. I think there was a RAID-1 configuration sometime back and that is why you got the same XP image on sda and sdb. sdc contains Ubuntu. You may install openSUSE on sdb but before that, just double-check in the BIOS that BIOS level RAID is off now. Typically, if the BIOS level RAID-1 is on, OS will see only sda and not sdb. -- openSUSE 11.1 (x86_64) with KDE 4.2.86 (Release 125) on MacBook Pro ------------------------------------------------------------------------ syampillai's Profile: http://forums.opensuse.org/member.php?userid=10369 View this thread: http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php?t=414727

I've got to admit, the whole thing is very strange. At one time I tried to install Ubuntu on the 200Gb HDD without either of the 120s plugged in (I was afraid of deleting XP & other data). It installed & wanted to re-boot but boot failed. There must be some start up information on one or both of the 120s because it never would boot without the 120s plugged in. Then, I unplugged the 200Gb with Ubuntu & tried to boot XP by plugging C: in by itself just to make sure I didn't screw up the PC. I don't recall how long I waited, but abandoned this & plugged in the other 120 HDD & it booted normal. I kind of lost my nerve & deleted Ubuntu off the 200Gb. After Ubuntu introduced the stable version of 9.04 & I installed Ubuntu again but this time with all HDDs plugged in so it would write a dual boot menu. Everything works but XP is very slow to boot. Once booted, however, operation speed seems very normal. Somehow, both 120s are needed for a normal XP boot & with GRUB configured as it is, I can select only one. However XP handled this before is missing in GRUB.

I can't comment on why XP is booting slowly without the 2nd disk. XP may be keeping some status about the earlier configuration. If you don't want to disturb the 2nd disk, just repartition Ubuntu and for sure, you can find place for openSUSE too. -- openSUSE 11.1 (x86_64) with KDE 4.2.86 (Release 125) on MacBook Pro ------------------------------------------------------------------------ syampillai's Profile: http://forums.opensuse.org/member.php?userid=10369 View this thread: http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php?t=414727
