NetBSD 9_RC1 not booting from disklabel partition on RAIDframe on GPT
Hello,
there seems to be a deviation of the boot behavior in NetBSD 9_RC1
compared to NetBSD 8.1 under the following circumstances:
1) system has 2 disks (wd0, wd1)
2) disks are GPT-partitioned
3) GPT contains one GPT-partition (RAIDframe component) each
4) RAIDframe raid0 contains a NetBSD disklabel
After installing NetBSD 9_RC1 it will not boot, instead the primary
bootstrap is telling me:
Unexpected raidframe label version
NAME=sys0 not found
The closest I could find is this commit:
https://www.mail-archive.com/source-changes-d%netbsd.org@localhost/msg21099.html
where GPT and RAIDframe support for the boot loaders was enhanced (which
is really good!).
Here is where I set up the system:
* Boot from USB installation media
* Select keyboard type
* Utility Menu - Run /bin/sh
# ksh
# gpt create wd0
# gpt create wd1
# gpt add -l sys0 -a 2m -s 96G -t raid wd0
# gpt add -l sys1 -a 2m -s 96G -t raid wd1
# gpt show -l wd0
# gpt show -l wd1
# dkctl wd0 listwedges
# dkctl wd1 listwedges
# gpt biosboot -A -i 1 wd0
# gpt biosboot -A -i 1 wd1
# vi /tmp/raid0.conf
START array
1 2 0
START disks
/dev/dk0
absent
START layout
128 1 1 1
START queue
fifo 100
# raidctl -C /tmp/raid0.conf raid0
# raidctl -I 201912500 raid0
# raidctl -i raid0
# raidctl -A softroot raid0
* Exit shell and continue with installer
* Install NetBSD to hard disk
* Select raid0
* Select disklabel as partitioning scheme for raid0
* Set sizes of NetBSD Partitions
-> Change input units (MB)
* root 16384
* swap 16384
* usr 32768+
* var 8192
* Bootblock: BIOS console
* Installation w/out X11
* Utility Menu - Run /bin/sh
# installboot -o timeout=30 -v -t raid /dev/rdk0 /usr/mdec/bootxx_ffsv2
* Reboot
Kind regards
Matthias
