I swear I've done this dozens of times: a new server, going to install (CentOS 7, in this case), and I manually partition the disk before the install using parted, and do mkpart pri 0.0GB +1.0GB Except now it appears to be saying it doesn't like the +1.0GB, I *think* it's the plus sign. mark

Hi list, I'm new with UEFI and GPT. For several years I've used MBR partition table. I've installed my system on software raid1 (mdadm) using md0(sda1,sdb1) for swap, md1(sda2, sdb2) for /, md2 (sda3,sdb3) for /home. From several how-to concerning raid1 installation, I must put each partition on a different md devices. I've asked times ago if it's more correct create the

.../dev/sdc. The system came with some SCCI drives that are labeled as /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. I was surprised that the sata drives used sdc. Are the sata drives considered more like SCCI or IDE drives? The real problem occurred when I tried to partition the drive with parted. I used he command mkpart to form one partition of 300 gigs which created /dev/sdc1, and then after 'quiting' parted used mkfs.ext3 to create a file system. Everything went as expected with the ability to mount the file system and copy files into it. However, /dev/sdc1 disappeared when I rebooted. After the reboot...

Alignment's easy: using parted (the user-hostile program), if you do go in with parted -a optimal /dev/drive, and do mkpart pri ext4 0.0GB 100% (for non-root drives, for example), it's aligned correctly. mark

I'm hoping that someone here can help. 1: Is this system booting UEFI or BIOS? 2: Is the disk partitioned with MBR or GPT? 3: Is /boot on its own partition? 3TB drives are larger than MBR and BIOS properly support, so they're only really expected to work on a system partitioned with
