/proc/mdstat exists. I can't create md arrays, as the utilities say that
/dev/md0 is a bad argument.
Just to be sure: what's the output of
uname -a
mkraid --version
?

this is quite interesting, since it shouldn't work :
And, apropos, are any (stability) problems known with the famous
raid-2.2.14-B1?
BTW: which raidtools to use with it? Dangerous-0.90-2116 or the
"ordinary" 19990824-0.90? The latter I guess..

months ago I asked what's the 'translucent' feature as well, but no
reply.. :(
Thanks,

Is it safe to kill these?
These are loggers, so I guess nothing terrible would happen. But I
wouldn't kill them anyway..
Anybody know of any disk rate monitoring software out there that will
monitor disk ios and disk transfer rates on Linux systems?
Do you know this?

Where do I get the pre-2.2.13 patches?
Looked on kernel.org but they weren't there.

If i try and put root=/dev/md1 in lilo.conf then i get the error device
0x0900 not known.
There's my lilo.conf line:
root=0x900
It works. 0x901 should work too, I think. :-)

you will have to use raidsetfaulty first, then raidhotremove...
Ugh? How? There's no such binary on my system. Echo it somewhere to
/proc?
Egon Eckert
is there an archive of this mailing list ?
if yes: where can i find it ?
There are probably more of them. The one I use is accessible from

tolerant free system. Currently I have 1 server with 4 disks on it (3
9.OGB and 1 4GB on external disk bay).
On the 9 GB disks I would probably do
1x 5 GB partition
1x almost 4 GB partition
1x small partition for swap (30 MB or so, depending on total space)
On the 4 GB disk I would do
1x
Just curious:
1. What's the Translucent mode? The ability to do linear over RAID-5 etc.?
2. How about LVM (in alpha RAID patches)? Is it the same / incompatible /
competition with LVM on http://linux.msede.com/lvm/?
Thanks,
Egon Eckert
that does for you. Perhaps those are the correct steps for a brand new
unformatted drive. I did not have to do anything with the partitions.
Nono.. With new (unformatted) drive you have to create the partition(s)
first, that's for sure. I explained the reason for the strange, complicated
/usr/include/linux/errno.h:4: asm/errno.h: No such file or directory
You must have at least kernel headers ready. Unpack recent kernel's sources
to /usr/src/linux and make links /usr/include/{asm,linux,scsi} as suggested
in /usr/src/linux/README. You may get further then. :)

How do I re-sync these RAID devices?
You have to add the partitions on sdb (if this is your 2nd SCSI disk) to the
arrays again.
1. Do 'raidstop /dev/md0' .. 'raidstop /dev/md8'.
2. Change types of the sdb's partitions to 83 (if they have type fd) -- this
will exclude them from autodetection
Hi all,
after some hours playing with RAID-1 recovery I wrote a tiny HOWTO-proposal,
suitable mainly for newbies (I hope!).
Please, comment it, send me all the corrections and flames, so it eventually
can help constitute a needed section in the "real" HOWTO.
The URL:
This is fascinating. It reminds me of Star Trek calm conversation in
control center during laser shooting on enemy spaceship. :)
hda: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
hda: read_intr: error=0x40 { UncorrectableError }, LBAsect=1521738, sector=1501515
time :) (and starts resyncing again next
time, obviously). When I boot the same kernel "elsewhere" - not mounting
this RAID-1 device as root - the recovery runs finishes OK, but this is
only my amateurish observation, probably nothing very important..
Thanx for help,
Egon Eckert, Pra
I've got one machine running this (2.0.37) and it works fine.
I've got several Pentium I/II machines using 2.0.37 with raid 990824 patches
and for me it's ROCK SOLID, even on SMP boards. I consider this a most
stable Linux with SW-RAID setup, but your mileage may vary. :-)
