#Softraid beta upgrade#
The free final version of SMART Alec and $9.99 upgrade with additional features will be available in July. SMART Alec is currently available in beta at: /beta_test. SMART Alec can help you avoid losing years of sensitive, irreplaceable data from databases, word processing, Excel, PowerPoint and other business files, precious photos and videos, music compositions, and more. Mill Valley, CA, J– OWC, a leading zero emissions Mac and PC technology company, announced today SMART Alec, an essential Mac utility that constantly monitors and checks your Mac hard drives, SSDs, Firewire disks, and USB drives, warning you in advance if drives are failing or about to fail, so you’ll have plenty of time to back up and replace a bad drive. Then I rebooted, triggered PXE again, and kickstart + preseed finished installing.DON’T LOSE IMPORTANT DATA, PHOTOS, VIDEOS, & OTHER FILES TO DISK FAILURE AGAINĪvailable in Beta Now – Shipping July “A Check Engine Light for Your Disks” – Constantly Monitors Drives with Predictive Failure Analysis For Mac Hard Drives, SSDs, Firewire Disks, & USB Drives Checks for Errors & Warns in Advance if Disks Have Failed or are About to Fail Free Download from the iTunes App Store - $9.99 Upgrade Available Then I zeroed the superblock on all my disks using dd.
#Softraid beta install#
Hit alt+f2 while the install is failed, hit enter to get a prompt. Probably my disks were used in a RAID test before I got them.
#Softraid beta software#
Next I found this page, which suggested I might have a software raid superblock. Then I tried manually formatting a partition, and it would not let me, saying it was in use.īased on that, I found a page saying I might have an lvm volume I need to remove.
If I used preseed to force skipping of the iSCSI menu, I would instead get the same error as you (no root file system defined). If I used kickstart without preseed, it would prompt me for an iSCSI target server.
And I have the solution that worked for me. I had this problem, but maybe not the same as you. Raid / -level=1 -device=md1 -fstype ext3 raid.02 raid.04 Raid swap -level=1 -device=md0 -fstype swap raid.01 raid.03
Here is the partitioning part of my kickstart file: I can`t go back to make any changes! (And I don`t want to thats why I`d like to do automated partitioning.) Me too the same error "No Root File System Defined" error occurs with a red background and a simple continue button on it which gives back the same error. so yes the above works when manually create a RAID device but with automated kickstart install RAID partitioning fails. Then go to raid#2 (swap partition on both drives) and set it to "swap space" Go back, on the partitions list, choose raid#1 (main partition on both drives) and hit enter, select / as the mount point and ext4 (or 3) as the fs, then bootable flag to yes (if it asks)
