Hi,

after a disk failure (Software RAID 1 worked fine here) I exchanged
the bad disk, partitioned the new disk, and started raidhotadd.

/proc/mdstat says that the new disk is resyncing but there is no
progress at all. There is only 1% of the mirror in sync now and
the estimated time of completion grows continuously. There is
a load average of about 1.0 caused by this process.

After several trys I gave up to resync the mirror and started
the server with the incomplete RAID 1 Array :-(

Environment:
Kernel is 2.2.10 with new-raid-style patches applied, auto-detection
activated and a persistent superblock.

Any hints?

Thanks, Thomas
