Hi all,
Please help me with this: I got a new server assembled, motherboard is Asus P8Z68 Deluxe, 4x2TB physical hard-drive. trying to configure as RAID10 then install Ubuntu.
Here is what i did: start server- using Ctl+I go to configure RAID, i can see 4 hard-disks(non-raid), then i selected create raid, got an option to use RAID10, then got about 4TB space automatically filled in the size session.
Then selected create volume. After that, i see 4x1.8 TB disk all as "memeber".
Up to here, am I right? I am wondering, of the 4 disks, which one is playing raid1 which ones are playing raid0?
Then i decide to install OS, booted using alternate installation disk, select language, time zone, keyboard, then detect disk.
Here is the strange part, the installation disk can detect and ask me whether to activate RAID. i select YES, then i can see 2X2TB volumes are listing there(shouldn't i see 1X 4TB volume???), i got confused here, cus dont know which one should i install os on.
I tried choosing a random one, but after installation, i could not boot into the system.
I dont know where the problem is .
Please help!
