So if you want to be able to boot both Windows and Linux, you need to use dmraid.Jaap-Jan https://creepy.tweakblogs.net/blog/3638/ubuntu-and-dmraid-not-quite-there-yet.html#r_41294#reacties https://creepy.tweakblogs.net/blog/3638#r_41294 Tue, 23 Feb 2010 00:32:44 GMT https://creepy.tweakblogs.net/blog/3638/ubuntu-and-dmraid-not-quite-there-yet.html#r_41290 This is a common problem. GRUB2 really sucks the hell out of it. I've downgraded to GRUB-legacy on every dual-boot system I came across. I hate GRUB2. Everytime you edit the main menu file (grub.cfg), it just gets overwritten after a kernel-update. All your nicely customized settings gone, back to the (faulty) auto-probe values.Petervanakelyen https://creepy.tweakblogs.net/blog/3638/ubuntu-and-dmraid-not-quite-there-yet.html#r_41290#reacties https://creepy.tweakblogs.net/blog/3638#r_41290 Mon, 22 Feb 2010 22:00:38 GMT https://creepy.tweakblogs.net/blog/3638/ubuntu-and-dmraid-not-quite-there-yet.html#r_41288 Reading that makes me happy that my little server only runs debian, so linux-based software raid is possible. Initially, I tried DMRaid too, and ran into similar problems In the end, I had to switch the S-ATA controller, lost all the data and switched to linux-sw-raid. It works like a charm, but that's no option if you have to multi-boot windows. It still makes me wonder, though... Isn't there any solution out there that'll let you run linux software raid on windows? Edit: Without running windows in a VirtualBox/VMWare, that is. Useful though they are, gaming in a virtual machine isn't very nice. Edit 2: Hmm. If both the Gentoo and Arch wiki's suggest to use hardware raid, I must have remembered wrong.
