Hi,

I have a RedHat 7.3 system which has / and /boot partitions Raid-1 
mirrored across 2 harddrives, /dev/hda, /dev/hdc

When one of the disks fails, the system usually hangs.
I can ping the server, things that are in memory seem to still work - but 
anything that has to go to the filesystem will fail, and then I need to do a 
reboot upon which the failed disk doesn't get seen by BIOS and thus is 
removed from the raid device when the system boots..

Any ideas on why the raid doesn't just ignore the failed disk and run 
in degraded mode properly?

Thanks,

Craig A
