Hello everybodyI'm currently in doubt about everything and need advice from someone who is familiar with NetBSD's boot processes.
I am trying to set up a system with two hard drives as RAID 1. To do this, I create a GPT on both disks with a single partition of the type raid on each. I then mirror these partitions together into a RAID 1 using raidframe. I then create an embedded GPT with the netbsd partitions into the raidframe. the first partition carries the root filesystem from which I also want to boot. And this is what I don't succeed.
The crazy thing is, a while ago I managed a similar setup on the same computer (but with different hard drives). At that time I wrote an installer script and it doesn't seem to work anymore either. I now doubt whether I still made some manual adjustments to make it work.
So if someone has experience with the boot process, I would be very grateful if they could take a look at the script to see if it was correct at the critical points. I am thinking primarily of the places where installboot and gpt biosboot are called.
The error pattern looks like this: when the installation is complete, i get the text of the primary bootstap when booting from hard disk:
NetBSD/x86 ffsv2 Primary Bootstrap Boot failed (errno 2): Can't open /boot I attach the script directly to this email and remain with kind regards Matthias #!/bin/sh ##### Cleanup pre-existing partitioning ############################### gpt destroy -f raid0 raidctl -u raid0 dkctl wd0 delwedge dk0 dkctl wd1 delwedge dk1 gpt destroy -f wd0 gpt destroy -f wd1 ##### Create GPT partition tables on disks ############################ gpt create wd0 gpt create wd1 gpt add -l sys0 -a 2m -t raid wd0 gpt add -l sys1 -a 2m -t raid wd1 ##### Create RAID ##################################################### cat <<EOF >/tmp/raid0.conf START array 1 2 0 START disks /dev/dk0 absent START layout 128 1 1 1 START queue fifo 100 EOF raidctl -C /tmp/raid0.conf raid0 raidctl -I 2020020900 raid0 raidctl -i raid0 raidctl -A softroot raid0 ##### Create GPT partition tables on RAID ############################# gpt destroy -f raid0 gpt create raid0 gpt add -l root -a 2m -s 16G -t ffs raid0 gpt add -l swap -a 2m -s 8G -t swap raid0 gpt add -l usr -a 2m -s 96G -t ffs raid0 gpt add -l var -a 2m -s 8G -t ffs raid0 ##### Mark partitions bootable ######################################## gpt biosboot -A -i 1 wd0 gpt biosboot -A -i 1 wd1 gpt set -a biosboot,bootme -i 1 wd0 gpt set -a biosboot,bootme -i 1 wd1 ##### Format partitions ############################################### newfs -O2 NAME=root newfs -O2 NAME=usr newfs -O2 NAME=var ##### Create mountpoints and mount #################################### mkdir -p /targetroot mount -o log NAME=root /targetroot mkdir -p /targetroot/usr mount -o log NAME=usr /targetroot/usr mkdir -p /targetroot/var mount -o log NAME=var /targetroot/var ##### Create empty directories ######################################## mkdir -p /targetroot/kern mkdir -p /targetroot/proc mkdir -p /targetroot/dev/pts mkdir -p /targetroot/cdrom mkdir -p /targetroot/var/shm mkdir -p /targetroot/etc ##### Create fstab #################################################### cat <<EOF >/targetroot/etc/fstab # NetBSD /etc/fstab # See /usr/share/examples/fstab/ for more examples.
