I have an Adaptec 4-channel raid controller. I have just got the

i tried this but mkraid still gives the same error of "a maximum of 12
disks is supported."
i set MD_SB_DISKS_WORDS to 480 to give me 15 disks.
does anyone have more detailed instructions?
looking in parser.c i see where that should have worked, but i guess i'm
missing something. it parses down

I created the /dev/md0 and I compiled the kernel to pick up the devices

Perhaps if you also modified MAX_REAL in the md_k.h file to 15, it will like more
than 12. This value is only used by raid0.

Hi all,
I'm trying to add mirroring RAID to an existing partition. Is this possible?
It appears to me that when I do mkraid I'm going to kill the existing data.
Is there no way to tell it to use my exisiting data in a new RAID seting and
sync it to the new partition(s)?
Thank,

Dominick,
I got it working!
I went through and made sure that I had raid1 compiled directly in the
kernel along with ramdisk. I don't know if ramdisk is required, but I put
it in there. I also threw in the other modules that were listed below the
