I have been trying (when I get time) to add a soft RAID to our TurboLinux
6.5 guest, running under VM 4.4.0.
After trying a number of things with the DASD I always get the same
result. I have been formating the DASD's before I try
to do a mkraid, by using dasdfmt. The format works when I am going to
just add a single DASD to Linux. However, I
am not sure what I should use otherwise. Here is the error message and
the RAIDTAB file I am using.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /root]# mkraid /dev/md0

I looked in the /var/log/messages but it had nothing that would indicate
would had failed.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Greg Evans
