Foreword
After upgrading my server, some of the hardware has changed (naturally). This page describes my server layout as it is now.
Main System
MAINBOARD: INTEL D945GCLF, Atom 230 (embedded)
CPU: On-board
RAM: 2GB
GFX: On-board
NIC: On-board
Controller: On-board single IDE ATA controller, on-board 2ch SATA150 controller, PCI 4ch SATA150 (fake)RAID controller with Silicon Image SIL 3114 chipset
Storage hardware in the server
Primary Master is IDE (sda) - Western Digital 40GB Harddrive (WDC WD400JB-00JJC)
Primary Slave is IDE (sr0) - LiteOn DVD-writer
SATA ch1 (on-board) is S-IDE (sdb) - Seagate ST3250820AS
SATA ch2 (on-board) is S-IDE (sdc) - Seagate ST3250820AS
SATA ch1 is S-IDE (sdd) - WD Caviar SE 2500AAJS, 250GB, SATAII
SATA ch2 is S-IDE (sde) - WD Caviar SE 2500AAJS, 250GB, SATAII
Partition Schemes
Partition setup for sda
partition size mountpoint Filesystem options sda1 20000MB / ext3 sda5 2000MB SWAP SWAP Remaining Free Space 18000MB
Partition setup for sdb
partition size mountpoint Filesystem sdb1 250000MB Linux raid autodetect(FD)
Partition setup for sdc
partition size mountpoint Filesystem sdc1 250000MB Linux raid autodetect(FD)
Partition setup for sdd
partition size mountpoint Filesystem sdc1 250000MB Linux raid autodetect(FD)
Partition setup for sde
partition size mountpoint Filesystem sdc1 250000MB Linux raid autodetect(FD)
Although the partition order has changed after creating the raid system. No matter as I use labels and UUIDs for /etc/fstab
OS Install
I won't go into detail here. There are a lot of guides on the Internet that describes howto install an Ubuntu server system.
Suffice to say the version I have installed is ubuntu-8.04-2-i386-server.LTS and I installed the openssh server during cdrom install. I did not setup the raid until the OS was up and running.
Note
I know this is kind of a short, but it is only meant as an introduction to my setup. The juicy stuff will follow on other pages.
