root on md raid 1 not out of the box for slackware current as of 2021-12-04
by amaretzek from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5SPYK)
Hi!
When installing slackware current (as of 2021-dec-04) on a md raid level 1, the UUID doesn't make it to (/mnt)/etc/mdadm.conf and hence booting after installation fails.
I did this:
- boot with USB PEN drive
- setup md0 for root, metadate 0.90.
- start setup
- My workaround:
- - as soon as the mdadm package is on disk,
- - (in another terminal) mdadm -Es >> /mnt/etc/mdadm.conf
- finish setup and reboot
Hope this helps...
