    For mounting error firstly.

    Normally the Rescue System assembles all autodected arrays. Should your array not be automatically started you can manually do so with the following command:
    Then mount as
    & then proceed further for grub install

    /dev/md0 looks like swapspace - not mounted

    Thanks 2 All,

    ALL the hetzner procedure successful maked till Bootloader installation...

    but when I try mount:

    HTML:
    root@rescue ~ # mount /dev/md0 /mnt
/dev/md0 looks like swapspace - not mounted
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
    suggestions ?

    Did you create a filesystem on /dev/md0 ?

    something like mkfs -t ext3 /dev/md0

    Block size=4096 (log=2)
    Fragment size=4096 (log=2)
    Stride=0 blocks, Stripe width=0 blocks
    2097152 inodes, 8388334 blocks
    419416 blocks (5.00%) reserved for the super user
    First data block=0
    Maximum filesystem blocks=4294967296
    256 block groups
