I just managed to install raidtools v0.90 & the raid0145 1005-C patch
for 2.0.35 without any problems. Now I'm trying to re-create an array
(raid 5) as I aquired more disks.
I do a raidstop /dev/md0 - no problem
I change the /etc/raidtab to list all the disks - no problem.
Now I do a mkraid --force the system goes through an analyzes the
superblock, binds the disks until it hits a disk that was in the
original array. It then tells me that the disk /dev/sd[?]1 is
already used in a RAID array and then mkraid aborts.
Does someone have a patch that fixes this? The --force option shouldn't
CARE if the device is already used or not. It should blow away whatever's
there and update.
Anyone have any suggestions/fixes? I don't want to have to dd all
the disks (it'll take forever, for 12 4gig drives).
