[gentoo-user] RAID help
Hi All, I haven't had to set up a software RAID for years and now. I want to set up two RAID 1 arrays on a new file server to serve SBM to MSWindows clients. The first RAID1 having two disks, where a multipartition OS installation will take place. The second RAID1 having two disks for a single data partition. From what I recall I used mdadm with --auto=mdp, to create a RAID1 from 2 disks, before I used fdisk to partition the new /dev/md0 as necessary. All this is lost in the fog of time. Now I read that these days udev names the devices/partitions, so I am not sure what the implication of this is and how to proceed. What is current practice? Create multiple /dev/mdXs for the OS partitions I would want and then stick a fs on each one, or create one /dev/md0 which thereafter is formatted with multiple partitions? Grateful for any pointers to resolve my confusion. -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Dale Run blkid on your present mobo, and you will see where your filesystem(s) are located in regards to /dev/sd{a,b,c,d}. When you plug your SATA drive(s) to your new mobo, look for labels on the mobo to indicate SATA{1,2,3,4,5,6} or whatever. Generally they are going to use sda on 1, sdb on 2, etc. What can throw that off is the ATAPI drive (DVD/CD). I'd put it on the highest SATA#, at least for that first boot. Also look at your /var/log/dmesg output. NB: less /var/log/dmesg is NOT the same as dmesg. Do the former and it will show you only that part from boot to Linux login (or whatever). As previously stated, be sure to have all the drivers you need built into your new kernel. You may or may not be able to ascertain that w/out the board in your possession. You can look it up by make/model on http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/ but they are using an old kernel, therefore, caveat emptor. One way you can check that is to boot with SystemRescueCd first, select their kernel version closest to the one you'll be using, and run lspci -k from it. If you don't have something you need in your kernel, go ahead and chroot into the new system. I've moved stuff around like this...sold the wife's computer sans hard drive a few weeks ago, and it booted fine. So long as you have the new board's / fs and it's controller built into the new kernel, you'll get into the system. From there you can make nconfig on the running kernel and change/add whatever you missed. Don't forget that grub (if you use it for bootloader, not just fishing), has an editable line when you boot up. So if /dev/sda1 is not valid, edit it and try booting with /dev/sd{b,c,d}1 or whatever until you get it. Then once you're into the system, you can change it. Trivial, Homie!
