Thanks for the reply. Should I be using a different version/release that would work better for RAID? If so, pls let me know. As far as your info requests, see below.

thanks.

Charles -- are you familiar with this problem? Your raid guide mentions being able to use raid5 partitions, but this error is stopping me. I've also looked through the software raid-howto and found nothing about this error. I've google'd the error and the only thing I've been able to find says that raid is not supported by my kernal -- but the uname -a says I have the right one. Do I have a raid.lrp that is missing something, or should I be using a different kernal?

Hmm...it's been quite a while since I worked with RAID on Dachstein (web server has moved to Debian woody w/mdadm).

My first question is have you loaded the RAID kernel modules (check with "lsmod")?

Second:  What do you get when you "cat /proc/mdstat"?
