I've had a heck of a time getting software raid working under UltraPenguin
(RH5.2 based) on an UltraII. Here's my problems thus far:
I compile RAID5 support in with the 2.2.12 kernel (which is a stock kernel),
and it boots fine. I create, on 12 4.1Gig drives, a sigle 4.1 Gig partition
on a SparcStorage Array 210. I have the /etc/raidtab file setup according to
the docs, and tried using raidtools-.50.
When I run:
mkraid /dev/md0
I get:
sys32_ioctl: Unknown cmd fd(4) cmd(20000914) arg(efffd00)
handling MD device /dev/md0
analyzing super-block
disk 0: /dev/sdn1, 4190400kB, raid superblock at 4190336kB
mkraid: aborted
If I try to force it, I get the same thing, but all 12 drives list out. I'm
pulling my hair out here, so any help would be HUGELY appreciated!
