I have two 9GB SCSI drives on one controller on a Red Hat 6.0 server.
My partition table is the following:
sda1 boot Primary ext2     size of partition
sda5      Logical ext2
sda6      Logical swap

Disc #2
sdb1      Logical ext2     size of partition
sdb5      Logical ext2
sdb6      Logical swap

My raidtab file is the following:
raiddev /dev/md0
    raid-level                1
    nr-raid-disks             2
    nr-spare-disks            0
    chunk-size                4
    persistent-superblock 1
    device                    /dev/sda5
    raid-disk                 0
    device                    /dev/sdb5
    raid-disk                 1    
 
My question is that when I give the "mkraid /dev/md0" command why am I getting an error message and aborts my mkraid because it says that my drive is mounted. I have tried the same thing with two unmounted partitions.
When I try to force it with "f" I get a message that I should not do this and it will not proceed.
