Centos 5 on Large Disks.
...lan to allocate the space as follows
swap 8G
/boot 100M
/ 20G
-- and remaining space to /data{1,2,3,N} (equal sizes)
However after the installation and reboot, i got an error about bad
partition for /data8
I had hit the 2T limit.
Then i found this page at
http://www.knowplace.org/pages/howtos/linux_large_filesystems_support.php
which speaks of using Parted/LVM2 and XFS.
If i understand this correctly,
I need to have 1 disk to host the CentOS installation.
And i can use the other 5 disks in a RAID array
(label type gpt...)
Is it not possible to partition and use the existing RAID 5 volume?
I really am not sure abou...
