Thread: Intel p55: Fakeraid install with dmraid

-

just bit of context: i'm doing dual-boot (windows 7 / ubuntu 9.04) install on intel p55 bios controlled raid 0 array. of procedure i've been following comes https://help.ubuntu.com/community/fakeraidhowto , http://wiki.debian.org/debianinstaller/sataraid.

here's i've done far:
boot live cd

code:
$ sudo apt-get install dmraid $ sudo dmraid -ay
create ext3 , swap partition.
use ubiquity installer without installing grub.

without restarting:
code:
$ sudo swapoff -a $ sudo mount /dev/mapper/isw_whatever05 /target $ sudo mount --bind /dev /target/dev $ sudo mount --bind /dev /target/dev $ sudo mount -t proc proc /target/proc $ sudo mount -t sysfs sys /target/sys $ sudo cp /etc/resolv.conf /target/etc/resolv.conf  $ sudo chroot /target # apt-get update  # apt-get install dmraid # apt-get install grub # mkdir /boot/grub # cp /usr/lib/grub/x86_64-pc/* /boot/grub/ # grub --no-curses --device-map=/dev/null grub> device (hd0,4) /dev/mapper/isw_whatever05 grub> device (hd0) /dev/mapper/isw_whatever0 grub> root (hd0,4) grub> setup(hd0)
all goes , update-grub, edit menu.lst add windows, update-grub again , reboot.
grub lets me load windows, fails load ubuntu -- dmesg shows corrupt superblocks on ext3.

has consistently happened on several attempts. since i'm using new hardware, i'm not sure if it's bug or procedure. consider using purely software raid (mdam) last resort since prefer have windows running on raid 0 well.

help, suggestions, or resources appreciated.

also worth mentioning else attempting this:

windows 7 uses portion of unpartitioned drive space boot loader. 8mb chunk typically located either @ beginning of primary drive (not drive installed on) or before "system reserved" partition.

grub menu.lst entry uses root(0,1) instead of rootnoverify , points installation partition opposed system reserved.

i'm discovering may possible use mdadm in linux , dynamic drive in windows achieve independent, partition-based software raid.

still love dmraid working though.

i have laptop dead motherboard . can remove components laptop , in anyway possible connect raspberry pi inbuilt display , keyboard on laptop ? (and touchpad if possible). (i figured remove components inside , fix pie inside , use extended usb cable , connect available usb ports respective holes in laptop skeleton, same headphone out ) . i'm noob when comes pi . on topic appreciated if screen lvds type may possible use screen installing converter board. this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/hdmi-dvi-vga-dr ... 3027&rt=nc need model number of screen , ask seller if work. or search ebay using brand , model number. assuming screen in working order..... back-light not burnt out etc.. other devices...... can used if have usb interface not part of motherboard. have make connector. raspberrypi

Smoothing Capacitor value?

hi everyone! i have question "smoothing capacitors". have 5v arduino project have 6 individual 5v components attached it. since need these running @ different times, wanted take similar approach of nick gammon's in helpful example (http://www.gammon.com.au/forum/?id=12106) , use few mosfets switch these little guys on & off individually (instead of regular arduino pins), while minimizing potential power surges affect microcontroller and/or components themselves. these components 5v, , have maximum draw of ~170ma when powered on @ same time. so, if used 6 different mosfet switches turn switch +5v power line on each component directed via arduino uno, wondering: 1. still use 1 capacitor (like nick did in example)? 2. capacitor of 100uf work, or should use bigger? my plan first test circuit mosfets & capacitor(s) using usb, , later on, moving project battery power. thanks in advance ideas & suggestions! quote these little guys what ...
