The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 121602. There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024, and could in certain setups cause problems with: 1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO) 2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK) Command (m for help): p Disk /dev/mapper/isw_jceibccac_Volume0: 1000.2 GB, 1000210694144 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121602 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk identifier: 0x7e7498c6 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/mapper/isw_jceibccac_Volume0p1 * 1 31871 256000000 7 HPFS/NTFS /dev/mapper/isw_jceibccac_Volume0p2 31871 97142 524292091 5 Extended /dev/mapper/isw_jceibccac_Volume0p3 97143 121602 196474950 83 Linux /dev/mapper/isw_jceibccac_Volume0p5 31871 31936 524864+ 83 Linux /dev/mapper/isw_jceibccac_Volume0p6 31937 90681 471869181 83 Linux ----------------- I did not test mounting and read/write, because I did a chroot. But I assume if it found it ok then the mapper works. Is it possible debian would use this patch? (If I go to debian one day) Thank you for your help with this issue Giuseppe and Phillip, much appreciated. Raid 10 is a cheaper alternative if you want mirroring and striping without raid 5 xor/parity hardware/cpu usage. I'm quite satisfied with it. -- dmraid rc15 isw raid 10 "could not find disk in metadata" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/305011 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
