I have a system running Redhat 6.0 that had a RAID 0 disk set on it
(2 disks). The system is dual boot with windows 95, and I needed to
do something with windows. After doing the windows stuff, I rebooted
linux and now the RAID 0 will not mount. When I run raidstart by
hand, I get this:
Feb 4 10:03:33 xx kernel: (read) sda1's sb offset: 2117824 [events: f2d8e687]
Feb 4 10:03:33 xx kernel: md: invalid raid superblock magic on sda1
Feb 4 10:03:33 xx kernel: md: sda1 has invalid sb, not importing!
Feb 4 10:03:33 xx kernel: could not import sda1!
Feb 4 10:03:33 xx kernel: autostart sda1 failed!
Feb 4 10:03:33 xx kernel: huh12?
The raid set is sda1 and sdb1, which are not configured in Windows. Linux
appears to have shut down normally before I ran Windows.
Is there any hope of getting this raid set back, or getting a new superblock
on sda1? I realize that more of the disk structure could be trashed, but
I'd like to at least get far enough to run fsck and see.
There's nothing critical on the raid, but I'd rather not have to redo
what I had before if I don't have to. There are no backups, of
course.
Thanks,
