I was flowing this guide.



I'm using Linux Mint but it's Ubuntu based so it shouldn't be too much of a difference. Anyways it all goes well until I needed to chroot and reboot, after I run apt-get to install mdadm inside the install, I get errors saying that it is unavailable but it works fine in the live environment and then if I reboot I get a grub error saying:




vfs unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(5 0)




Any idea of how I can fix this or make a bootable RAID 10?

  • Personally I'd reserve a /boot partition on every disk (consider what happens if your only disk containing /boot is the one that dies. I'd also make the /boot partition at least 100MB rather than your guide's 50MB.

  • Please include in your question the output from fdisk -l showing the partition layout for all four of your disks.
