I’m going with just the array this time, the HD isn’t bootable in this server ;-). It’s hard to get it to boot a CD sometimes. Anyways, I’m setting up the partitions manually again, if this doesn’t work I may try an earlier version. I’ve read people having no problems with fedora core 4. Is there a previous version of K12LTSP using FC5 or FC4?

I▔e got it reading the entire HD as /boot ext 3 and I▔e split the array into / ext3 and a swap. Does that sound correct? There is only one section now, Hard Drives, and there are no LVM. I▌ tentative to continue without input because of the amount of time it takes me to get to this point again. Besides I have other work I can do while I wait for a reply.

If you look closely, you will see that LVM is spanning both your array & the IDE drive ( /dev/hdb is your IDE hardrive and it is showing 2 partitions. You would want it to only have a single partition, /dev/hdb1. Have another go at it and see if you can force the boot partition to consume the entire drive. I don't have the interface in front of me right now, but I "think" you can do a custom partition setup...<BR><BR>HTH,<BR><BR>-ejb<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV> <P class=MsoNormal><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt"><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></FONT></P></DIV></DIV> <P class=MsoNormal><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt"><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></FONT></P> <DIV class=MsoNormal style="TEXT-ALIGN: center" align=center><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt"> <HR align=center width="100%" SIZE=1> </SPAN></FONT></DIV> <P class=MsoNormal><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Ahhh...imagining that irresistible "new car" smell?<BR>Check out <A href="http://us.rd.yahoo.com/evt=48245/*http:/autos.yahoo.com/new_cars.html;_ylc=X3oDMTE1YW1jcXJ2BF9TAzk3MTA3MDc2BHNlYwNtYWlsdGFncwRzbGsDbmV3LWNhcnM-">new cars at Yahoo!
