Hi, i'm just playing around and need some information: First, I tried to use kernel v2.2.9 and the raidtools-0.50beta-3, but i didn't make it to compile the raidtools (seems the md-structures have changed). Then, I got the raidtools-0.90 from the alpha directory and the patch for the 2.2.6 kernel, downgraded my kernel and hooked my raid-1 two-disk system successfully up. Just for fun I plugged one disk off the scsi-bus and everything still worked fine. The kernel recognized the missing disk and downgraded the md-interface to one disk. Then I plugged the 2nd disk on the bus again and did a reboot, but the disk was still not used. Unfortunatly mkcheck seems not to be obsolete. I had to set up the whole raid-1 system with mkraid again (guess that's not the idea behind raid-1 <g>) So, I friend of mine pointed out that i'm using alpha software, but - and that's my question - where can I get the right raidtools for a actual v2.2.x kernel and WHICH are the RIGHT raidtools ? And next thing: Why do I have to patch the v2.2 kernel? Thanks in advance... .\\ichael +--------------------------+-------------------------------------------+ Yesterday is history, Tommorrow is a mystery but Today is a gift.
