What I'm saying is that the installer can
find and assemble the
raid10 I use for home, no problem, but it refuses to proceed with
the install if it isn't commanded to format it, wipeing out around
50 gigs of data that I recovered from amanda backups without amanda
help cuz amanda won't build on bullseye. Perl and python are both
too new. So I'm reduced to gzip, dd and tar.
Hi Gene,
What words or other communication mode does the installer use
to refuse your command? At the point in time when this happens, what is the
complete
disk configuration you have told the installed to use?
--Mike
I have /home and quite a few gigs of swap on the raid10 which is 4, 1T
SSD's on its own dumb controller, but the boot drive and the rest of the
system is on a 500Gig SSD. /dv/sda here.

/sdb1 is a 240G SSD I'm using as a scratchpad for recovering from a 2T
drive labled amandatapes2T but not presently mounted. It has the backups
amanda made of most of my stuff for around 60 days before its twin drive
puked and started this whole nightmare. /sdb1 It has another partition,
unmounted here, that accounts for the missng 10G's.
Thanks Mike, take care and stay well.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
