Hi all, I'm getting new servers with 6 x 300G SAS on Adaptec AIC-9410, and finding RHEL5 is the only distro now with aic94xx module. I enabled RAID function of AIC9410 and set up a RAID 0 array on disk 2~6 to form an 1.4T logical volumn, leaving disk 1 a stand-alond disk.
During RHEL5 install everything seems okay, I mount disk1(/dev/sda1) to "/", disk2 to "swap" (4G, /dev/sdb1) and "/home" (1.39T, /dev/sdb2). But when rebooted the system complained that it cannot mount /dev/sdb2. In "filesystem repair" mode I tried "mkfs.ext3 -L /home /dev/sdb2" and it seemed to work since I can login into the system afterwards. However, it turned out that it is still in trouble that when I tried to add a user into Linux, it failed, telling "adduser: cannot create directory /home/foo". I then tried to make the dir manually, just got "mkdir: cannot create directory `foo': Read-only file system". Checked "dmesg", and I got things like: attempt to access beyond end of device sda: rw=0, want=2927380230, limit=585937500 printk: 31 messages suppressed. Buffer I/O error on device sda2, logical block 364898384 attempt to access beyond end of device sda: rw=0, want=2927380230, limit=585937500 Buffer I/O error on device sda2, logical block 364898384 attempt to access beyond end of device sda: rw=0, want=2927380310, limit=585937500 Buffer I/O error on device sda2, logical block 364898394 attempt to access beyond end of device sda: rw=0, want=2927380310, limit=585937500 attempt to access beyond end of device sda: rw=0, want=2927380358, limit=585937500 attempt to access beyond end of device sda: rw=0, want=2927380358, limit=585937500 attempt to access beyond end of device sda: rw=0, want=1834550414, limit=585937500 EXT3-fs error (device sda2): read_inode_bitmap: Cannot read inode bitmap - block_group = 6967, inode_bitmap = 228294657 Aborting journal on device sda2.
