Since the stock md/raid0 is now horribly broken in 2.1.12[89],
I decided today to try the latest raid1 stuff:
raid0145-19981110-2.1.127 -- kernel patch
raidtools-19981105-0.90.tar.gz -- raid utilities
After patching the kernel and rebooting, I created /etc/raidtab:
raiddev /dev/md0
raid-level 1
nr-raid-disks 2
nr-spare-disks 0
chunk-size 32
device /dev/hde1
raid-disk 0
device /dev/hdg1
raid-disk 1
and then did:
mkraid /dev/md0
#.. waited for /proc/mdstat to show sync'ing 100% completed, then..
mke2fs /dev/md0
mount /dev/md0 /u
cp -auvfx / /u ## copy everthing to md0
umount /dev/md0
e2fsck -f /dev/md0
and lo.. the e2fsck finds *tons* of filesystem errors.
Running e2fsck -f /dev/md0 *again* finds more errors!
Not looking too good at the moment.
