Why does kickstart installation using md RAID1 fail to install bootloader on MBR even with correct partitioning?
Issue
- Why does kickstart installation using
mdRAID1 fail to installbootloaderonMBReven with correct partitioning? - The
program.logcomplains that it cant find themd125device, Which isn't specified in the kickstart file and whendfis ran, it appears to be mounted correctly. - Here is the partitioning.
ignoredisk --only-use=sda,sdb
bootloader --location=mbr --driveorder=sda,sdb --append="crashkernel=auto"
clearpart --all --initlabel --drives=sda,sdb
