Raid1 is mirroring, Raid0 is striping.
Sorry for the screw up.

For a description of the different raid levels, see:

But ignore that raid-HOWTO when it talks about the specifics of the drivers,
because it was written for a completely different earlier version
Hi,
I feel stupid. Trying to fsck a drive in readonly mode could cause
problems... duh.
It's too late. I'll be getting some sleep now. Sorry for the bother,

Hi,
Rrr.. Found the problem this time.. someone's software can't deal with a
single "." on a line. I suspect it's the list-serv software, because this
kind of error could easily happen on a pipe to sendmail.
Sorry to bother all of you not interested in this post.

installation can see both of the disks. This is
the way I do it and it works fine.
I think the main use of the chroot feature in lilo is to install on a floppy
that you have mounted at /dev/floppy. It's really just the thing you need
for that job.

The real documentation is in the lilo mini-HOWTO. The details on the "disk"
directive are in a section titled "Installing hdc to Boot as hda and Using
bios=". Can be found at:

Hi,
Did you run "mkraid" to setup the superblocks before you ran "raidstart"?

mkraid does not emit nice error messages, so if you dive into the source to
find something, dive into mkraid to really understand any error-like
messages it is throwing at you.

Just make sure to build the loop device and the raid5 personality into the
kernel and not as a module.

I suggest that the following files be either updated or deleted from the
.tar.gz archive. They will only tend to confuse people trying to use the
raidtools-0.90 package.
