Hello Everyone,
I was wondering if someone could help me trouble shoot the following
problems I am currently having in creating a RAID1 array.
First, I've configured, compiled and correctly installed linux-2.2.12
with the raid014519990824 patch. In addition, I am also using raidtools
0.90 that I installed from an rpm from the RedHat 6.0 cd.
My problem is that when ever I issue the following command:
% /sbin/mkraid /dev/md6
unrecognized option failed-disk
detected error on line 34:
failed-disk 1
mkraid: aborted
Below is a copy of my /etc/raidtab:
# raid-1 configuration
# "/" mount point
raiddev /dev/md0
raid-level 1
nr-raid-disks 2
nr-spare-disks 0
persistent-superblock 1
chunk-size 128
device /dev/hdb1
raid-disk 0
device /dev/hda1
failed-disk 1
# "/swap" theoretical mount point /* don't do this it will crash the machine */

Any assistance in resolving this problem and getting my RAID1 array
up and running would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks in advance
