Raid Gurus,
I have a need to determine whether a linux partion has been corrupted (say
by s/w running amok on a window partition). I think that it should be
possible to detect this by having two raid5 linux partitions attempt to
sync and then check whether any error was reported via a
Hi,
I've recently set up a fileserver with 6 disks in a RAID-6 configuration
and was going in to add a seventh using --grow. I started the grow using
mdadm --grow /dev/md0 -n 7 and the critical section passed successfully.
The grow started to reshape the array, but due to some power problems,

You can start it simply by mounting the filesystem, or with

Neil,
Thank you very much for your prompt response. I would have never figured
