Please confrim partiton choice works with Greyhole

Hello,

still trying to set-up with 3 x 2TB HDDs.

I've now used the advanced headless installer and am muddling my way through.

What I've created I believe is:

on /dev/sda :

sda1 30GB /boot

sda2 LVM



on /dev/sdb :

sdb1 4GB /swap

sdb2 LVM


on /dev/sdc :

sdb1 LWM

then I created a nmew partion at / cover the LVW.

The boot loader installed on /dev/sda

Does this look OK?

Anything I should do different?

Will I be able to add additional HDDs to the LVW later?

Many thanks

hmm, does not seem to work.

Now after booting I'm getting a window:

"What do you want to do?"

Reboot: Needed to complete the install


and it's like Groundhog Day, over and over again.

Can someone please guide me through the initial partition setup so that I can use Greyhole across 3 drives and will be able to add more in future.

Many thanks

Ralf
