On a system which already has several RAID5 filesystems (/dev/md1 to md4), I'm trying to set up a root-RAID-1. Actually I tried this a long time ago, and when it didn't work, I left it alone due to lack of time to play with it. I'm now trying to finish the work. system is Linux 2.0.36 with RAID-patches and tools from January. /etc/raidtab: raiddev /dev/md0 raid-level 1 nr-raid-disks 2 nr-spare-disks 0 chunk-size 32 device /dev/sdb2 raid-disk 0 device /dev/sdc2 raid-disk 1 # mkraid /dev/md0 handling MD device /dev/md0 analyzing super-block disk 0: /dev/sdb2, 64260kB, raid superblock at 64192kB disk 1: /dev/sdc2, 64260kB, raid superblock at 64192kB mkraid: aborted What's going on in here? The partitions certainly aren't in use or anything. -- Osma Ahvenlampi
