sgdisk hangs on Intel "fake" RAID

[julen]

I'm trying to deploy opsi for installing the standard win7-x64 on a PC with an ASUSTeK PRIME Q27M-C motherboard.
When setting the on-board "RAID" (Fake-RAID) to RAID1, the miniroot image finds the /dev/md126 (as well as /dev/sda and /dev/sdb), but it is unable to write to it.

The log file hangs on:

Code: Alles auswählen

[6] [Sep 07 19:37:09] Using encoding 'ANSI_X3.4-1968' (Posix.py|887)

From that point on, any attempt to use sgdisk, fdisk, blkid or anything that points to /dev/md126 gets stuck.

It feels like a kernel issue (module missing).
It also gets stuck if I run "dd" before the sgdisk calls, as:

Code: Alles auswählen

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/md126 bs=512 count=1

/dev/disk/by-uuid is missing, and blkid does not display any UUID.

If I boot with a standard recent Debian 9 I don't see any storage devices at all, but with a recent CentOS7 I can run the

Code: Alles auswählen

sgdisk --zap-all /dev/md126

without problem.

Maybe the "dmraid=true" option should be passed to the bootloader and the module included in the miniroot image?

And sure... deploying in non-raid mode installs perfectly on /dev/sda. So it really looks like a module is missing.

Hi
the dmraid modules are included in the bootimage
which version of the desired netboot product are you using?
Are you running in EFI mode?

cheers
