I tried to install on mlxd1 since thats the single disk. The mlx0 message says to use 2.42 or later, mine is 2.36-0-00. How do I upgrade? Alt+F2 says it was scanning the disk, then mlxd1: reading primary partition table: error reading fsbn 0 Where do I go from here? I'd LIKE to make the whole thing 1 big RAID-5 and install on that...
