RAID in Ubuntu Server updated
I’ve just updated Setting up software RAID in Ubuntu Server, one of our most popular articles.
The article was originally written for Ubuntu Server 6.06 and the instructions for making failed RAID drives bootable didn’t always work in recent versions.
The Ubuntu team has made many improvements to the RAID sitution in Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid) and last fall backported those to the current LTS release, Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy). Now getting a RAID1 system to boot when one drive has failed is much easier and I’ve updated our procedure to reflect that.
Since the entire world seems to have links to the original article, I’ve updated it in place at the old URL rather than post a new one.
