Hi,
I have set upp Softraid with 5*36.5GB (Maxtor) using RAID-5.
(3 disks on onboard (Athlon) VIA controller, 2 disks on PDC20262)
The setup worked ok and I created a file system with the following
data:
Block size: 4096
Fragment size: 4096
Blocks per group: 32768
Fragments per group: 32768
Inodes per group: 1024
Inode blocks per group: 32
(128k / inode)
This results in a ~145GB filesystem.
I use the following software:
2.2.13
md driver 0.90.0 MAX_MD_DEVS=256, MAX_REAL=12
ide patch from Andre Hedrick (~Nov 10)
The PROBLEM:
Running fsck on this filesystem _allways_ reports a _LOT OF_
errors. Automatic check at bootup never works, I allways have to do a
manuall check.
Running fsck -y takes several hours (it restarts several times,
allways after reporting (and fixing) a lot of errors (100+).
It seems to me as if I have problem with corrupted data.
I would like to try this with the latest 2.2.14pre -kernel + softraid
+ latest ide-patch but the softraid patch does not apply to this.
Anyone who has an idea?
Regards
/Jakob
PS.
The errors I get from fsck is:
