Bug found and fixed. To update: conary update openfiler (as root from the console) This will give you an opportunity to see how stupendously cool conary is. Under the old regime (yum + rpm), an update such as this (which is literally a single line fix) would have required a download of the entire 8MB openfiler package. With the conary update, the only thing that needs updating is a single file (the one containing the fix)- which is what gets downloaded. I'll stop drooling now and get back to the point. You might need to delete and recreate your RAID partitions first as some metadata might linger after you previously failed array creation steps. > BTW, the console screen keeps telling me that deprecated functions > are > being used and that others should be used. Those messages can be safely ignored. I'll see if I can do something about it for B2.
