FreeBSD partition and some other data.

In a raid5 setup only the first disk will have raid5 sector 0, which will show the size of raid5 'disk' which is 280GB. So I don't think you can infer anything from fdisk run on individual disks of a RAID5 set.

Likely it supports RAID5 and you are misunderstanding something. > ToDo: > Analyze RAID5 sets from LSI and, maybe (because i'm not a great C coder) > make some tool to get data from broken RAID sets. I wouldn't bother. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hardware To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
