Description Leah Cunningham 2005-08-18 23:31:37 UTC
I created a RAID 1 device of /dev/hda1 and /dev/hdc1, which were both 203.9MB in
size.  I selected a mount point of /boot.  Upon trying to finish partitioning, I
receive a message:

Warning:  Your boot partition is less than 12MB.  it is recommended to increase
the size of /boot.  Do you want to do this?

After installing packages, we get a failure trying to install grub.  A df -h
reveals /dev/md0 mounted on /mnt/boot with 6.1M Used and 182 available.

I know, I was just in a hurry.

I tried to reproduce the problem with more debug output but failed.
Maybe Thomas sees something suspicious in the log.
Comment 9 Thomas Fehr 2005-08-22 10:45:51 UTC
The superfluous warning is fixed meanwhile.
Please retry with beta#3.
