I keep getting:
handling MD device /dev/md0
analyzing super-block
disk 0: /dev/sda1, 8883913kB, raid superblock at 8883840kB
disk 1: /dev/sdb1, 8883913kB, raid superblock at 8883840kB
disk 2: /dev/sdc1, 8883913kB, raid superblock at 8883840kB
disk 3: /dev/sdd1, 8883913kB, raid superblock at 8883840kB
disk 4: /dev/sde1, 8883913kB, raid superblock at 8883840kB
disk 5: /dev/sdf1, 8883913kB, raid superblock at 8883840kB
disk 6: /dev/sdg1, 8883913kB, raid superblock at 8883840kB
mkraid: aborted, see the syslog and /proc/mdstat for potential clues.
No clues......
All are 9GB in an array
the /etc/raid5.conf looks like:
raiddev /dev/md0
raid-level 5
nr-raid-disks 7
chunk-size 4
# Parity placement algorithm
#parity-algorithm left-asymmetric
#
# the best one for maximum performance:
#
parity-algorithm left-symmetric
#parity-algorithm right-asymmetric
#parity-algorithm right-symmetric
# Spare disks for hot reconstruction
#nr-spare-disks 0
