Re: Losing my mind, RAID1 on Sparc completely broken?

I have an ultra 2 doing raid1 just fine (crosses fingers..)

I used mdadm to create it, have you tried using that instead?

though silo is broken... I managed to get it to work by booting with the
rescue cd and mounting /dev/sda1 read only and running chroot silo,
anything else refuses to work... see #224870
