I trying to install ubuntu on a intel skull trail system using the fake raid software.
I have the board set up for raid 1.
Installing ubuntu goes well enough until the intial reboot is tried.
The system hangs in the ash shell with a refference to a missing file in /dev/mapper. The name of this file is the character special file for the /boot filesystem.
If you look in /dev/mapper there is character special file called cotrol, but no other files.
I assume that part of the boot process dynamic populates the /dev/mapper with the character devices that refer to the different raid partations.
looking /etc/modules
lists
usbhid
e1000e
ohic1394
ieee1394
I assume that e1000 is the ehternet,usbhid is the usb system, 1394 is for the ieee1394 interface, should this file also include a reference to the fake raid software?
If thats not the case can anybody suggest any fixes or any thing that I should do?
