Hi,
I was running 4x9GB SCSI disks as a raid-0 /dev/md0 under redhat-5.2
(I was using kernel 2.2.3). I upgraded the sytem to redhat-6.0 (with the
standard modular 2.2.5 kernel), and things fell over. I tried running
mkraid --upgrade but it barfed because of some problem with chunk-size.

I'm looking for an archive of this list and/or recomendations for scsi

Hi,
If you put lilo in the MBR (someone correct me if I'm wrong) I don't
think you need to make the root partition bootable using fdisk as LILO

It depends on the computer
I would try to recompile the kernel with RAID linked in just to be sure.
So booting the kernel into single user mode and doing a raidstart /dev/md0
then a mount /dev/md0 doesn't start the array?
Do you have a seperate boot disk or is this RAID your root device?
If you keep having trouble post
If say your root drive is sda1 which is RAIDed to sdb1 then all you
need to do is change the boot= root= lines once.
boot=/dev/sdb
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b

image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=linux
root=/dev/sdb1

I finally have both a RAID1 and RAID5 system up and running thanks to the help of Mr. Allan Noah. I am however having trouble with symlinks though. I tried to start X after I got the system up and running and it would seem that xfs is having trouble finding fonts. I also tried
I have setup a partition on both drives with exactly same same number of blocks. Both
drive are the same model/type.

I have a cronjob that runs each night as root and does a:

Since both partitions are exactly the same in size type they
I just built a new system with an adaptec 2940 u2w and 4 IBM 4.5GB drives
running raid 5 with redhat 6.0. I set it up with the redhat stock kernel and
then tried to upgrade to a kernel that I built. I tried 2.2.6 + raid patches
and things seemed to be fine for a while then I started getting
There is also one other catch with dd, If a file was being written to the drive
while dd was copying it's data the file may become corrupt! With me the only files
that get changed on the root drive is /etc stuff and it's highly unlikely that anyone
is going to edit those at 1AM:-) Even if
Hi,
I have some question about raid:
1. what is raid?
2. why we use raid?
3. what 's mean raid 0, raid 0/1, raid 1, raid 4 and raid 5?
I 'm new to raid and I have downloaded some howto and raid tools. But I
still have some confuse that whether raid is only the method to make
many disks an

It is wrong.
In solaris, (And possibly other commercial Unicies) cp has an insane lack
of the "non dereferenced" option that we all know and love in the GNU
fileutils version of cp, this is why I always use GNU
