I am a newcomer to Linux. I'm trying to get a dual-boot Windows XP x64 working with Ubuntu 9.04. The machine has an ICH10R motherboard with a new Windows OS load on a two-drive RAID 1 array using the Intel Matrix Manager RAID management. After initially loading XP, I started Ubuntu from a Live CD and using the included dmraid had errors when trying to set up the RAID using the instructions at:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto When entering $ sudo dmraid -ay I had the following errors: Error: isw device for volume "Volume0" broken on /dev/sda in RAID set "isw_df . . . Error: wrong # of devices in RAID set "isw_df . . ." [1/2] on /dev/sda These errors were repeated for /dev/sdb I did not try the "$ sudo dmraid -r -d" entry. After searching I found Rob's request for testing the dmraid patch for ICH10R. I updated with his new version of dmraid, and tried the sudo dmraid -r -d entry. Here are the results: ubu...@ubuntu:~$ sudo dmraid -r -d DEBUG: isw metadata found at 640135027712 from probe at 640135027712 DEBUG: isw metadata found at 640135027712 from probe at 640135027712 /dev/sdb: isw, "isw_ifbbajief", GROUP, ok, 1250263726 sectors, data@ 0 /dev/sda: isw, "isw_dfdjaigcaf", GROUP, ok, 1250263726 sectors, data@ 0 However, when trying to return to my previous instructions, I got the same errors again when executing $ sudo dmraid -ay Hope this helps. If I can provide any more information I will be happy to, but I will need fairly explicit directions.
