I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I am trying to convert to raid
my rh 6.0 installation. I have not patched the system since I believe 6.0 is
"raid aware". I have 4 SCSI disks and I would like to mirror them. I
have partitions on drives 1 and 2 and free space on 3 and 4.
I would like
to completion forever
Any ideas? I know there was some buffer changed in 2.2.9 perhaps that is
an issue?
did you merge in the include/linux/fs.h reject?

We know raid1 works, but would swap on raid5? i hope it would, as
raid5 is less wasteful of disk space than raid1.
