Not quite true.
raid-1 also increases read performance. It can do reads just like raid0,
because both disks contain th

Hi all !
There's a new revision of the HOWTO out.
Some things got updated
*) Boot on RAID
*) Benchmarks
*) Testing
*) Hardware stuff (IDE etc.)
And a lot of things didn't. I know that some people have pointed
out shortcomings that has not been addressed in the current release.
I've be
Hi Tod
I do not see any mistake; from the theory of raid5 you should be able to
set a raid5
with 8 disks or more.
Maybe I am wrong.
Sorry that I can't help you further.

Hi,
I remember having seen on this list a message saying that making a swap
file on a filesystem residing over a raid device was not possible/reliable
(because of a race condition in the kernel?).
Unfortunately, my own archive of the list only contains a pass-by reference
to such a discuss
This is a two part message. First, I need to check to see if I'm on the
list..
Second, where can I get patches for the alpha raid tools that RedHat chose
to put in their version of the kernel that will work under 2.2.9? The

This example below assumes you don't use a separate /usr partition during
your "normal" install.
If you do use a separate /usr partition, don't 'mv' it or 'rm' it, merely
unmount it, and change your fstab to point to the metadevice. Similarly,
find something to do with that now useless partition
Hi all,
I "played" a litte with raid today and experienced some problems:
I have a generally stable system running RH 5.2, 2.2.9, raid-2.2.6 and
NFS-2.2.9-patch; 2xPII-350, 256MB; 4 Raid devices: mirror for root,
3xraid5 (1.5,2 and 55GB).
Then I did some things to it like rebooting it the hard

I don't have RAID, but I got the error
"invalid argument passed to ext2 library while setting up superblock"
when running mkfs on the 3rd partition created on a 13 Gig disk.
This was using RH 6.0. It seemed to be using the ext2 tools 1.14.
