I think I understand now. The system is no longer reading from/writing to
/dev/sda(2,3) it is reading from/writing to /dev/md(0,1). So fstab entries
should be
/dev/md0 /usr2 ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/md1 /usr3 ext2 defaults 1 1
not:
/dev/sda2 /usr2 ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/sda3 /usr2 ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/md0 /usr2rd ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/md1 /usr3rd ext2 defaults 1 1
I will try this.
How will I know if this is working, Is there a way to compare what is on
the paratitions?
Thanks
