I just did a virgin install of RH 5.1 on a machine. I upgraded the
kernel to 2.1.125 and installed raidtools-0.90 and tried to stripe
2 9gig barracudas as md0. I edited the raidtab file (included below)
and ran raidstart -a. It gives the following error:
# /sbin/raidstart -a
/dev/md0: Invalid argument
Any ideas?
Other details:
K6-300 system
64mb parity fpm SIMMS
1mb L2 cache
Buslogic 950 fast/wide/ultra controller
1 x 4.3gig fast/wide/ultra IBM system disk
2 x 9.1gig barracudas
1 3COM 3C900 "vortex/boomerang" card
cirrus logic cheesy 1mb ISA video card

/etc/raidtab
raiddev /dev/md0
raid-level 0 # it's not obvious but this *must* be
# right after raiddev
persistent-superblock 0 # set this to 1 if you want autostart,
# BUT SETTING TO 1 WILL DESTROY PREVIOUS
# CONTENTS if this is a RAID0 array created
# by older raidtools (0.40-0.51) or mdtools!
