From the accounts I have observed, it appears questionable that Raid
(software) for Linux is ready for serious use. Indeed, the product
support tech at RedHat inferred this also. I am about to install a Linux
server to a client, and the question I have is: Will the installation of
Raid be a
All looks fine:-)
I believe the persistant superblock is put at the end of the partition. This is why
you need to make the raid device then format it with e2fsck.
Your first configuration should have worked unless you somehow overwrote the
persistant superblock at the end of the

I am newbie in linux,

I couldn't agree more!
If one doesn't accept the need for diversity and choice in damn near
everything, he(or she) should just be sheep and follow M$.
A GUI is exactly what we need. Non-Technical people fear things that
appear(at least initially) unfriendly. Remeber the first time you sat down
Although I object strongly to this argument about non-technical users being
able to use it. I like GUIs for the introduction of tools, but beyond an
introduction, and when I'm comfortable with the tool, I'd much prefer the
command line to get the "real error messages" and for remote management

Is it possible to mount /dev/md# as macintosh volume
to my Apple computer via netatalk.
abridged procedure:
make your /dev/md* devices

mount /dev/md* somewhere
configure netatalk to export those mounts

I have been playing with raid on a stock Redhat 6.0 install for a couple
days now. I think I have finally figured everything out. I have raid5
working with 3 drives automounting via the kernel with type fd partitions.
I powered off a drive and then added it back with raidhotadd on a

is it correct that this failing kernel didnt have the RAID patch applied?
No, it was with raid too (all pre15 runs were). But this specific test result is not
of much use anyway, since there was an eventually problematic reject with the Unified

Seriously, I know and respect the redhat people (ought to, used to work

gonna kill reliability in 6.1.

I had similar lockups on a dual-SMP and found out my 2nd CPU was overheating
and was causing lockups.
Removing the 2nd CPU fixed my lockup problems. And, putting in two new CPUs
also fixed it (Duall PIII/500 now running for 5 days).
