Using RAID drives from Live CD load

[LTC Lib dfa]

One more question... I currently have RAID1 drives set up on my
Ubuntu Server. I don't mind reloading the OS to use the install from
the Live CD but I really don't want to loose the RAID drives. I tried
loading one time but couldn't see a way to get the Live CD to
recognize them and/or let me keep them. This may be a bit out of the
Live CD realm but can you think of a way that this could be
accomplished? I didn't see the normal "Manual" partitioning option
used to set them up when I loaded from the Live CD.

Thanks.

I'm not very familiar with this, but I think Ubuntu's desktop installer ("ubiquity") may not be able to handle RAID. I recall seeing RAID options in the "alternate" installer (or the server installer) but not the one that is used by the Live CD.

 

On the other hand, if the OS drive is not in the RAID array, you may be able to first install Koha Live into that drive, and then install the necessary packages to recognize and handle the RAID array. (e.g. dmraid)
