Re: Raid; mkraid /dev/md0_HELP?



////Well you're partially right. I did not recompile (but used the
'install'-
/kernel module 'selector' to get the modules for raid in.)
/I applied kernel-patch-2.2.19 (Preparing to replace
kernel-patch-2.2.19-/raid
/2
/    (using kernel-patch-2.2.19-raid_2_all.deb) ...
/    Unpacking replacement kernel-patch-2.2.19-raid ...
/    Setting up kernel-patch-2.2.19-raid (2) ...)
/Can it be that kernel-patch-2.2.10-raid and ...-2.2.10-raid coexist on my
/system?
/
/installed raidtools-2
/
/There is more?/////

Yes there is. Boldly went where probably the donkey went.
I did a clean install.(2.2r0 via FTP)
Got me:
- the 2.2.19 kernel image with raid and linear
- the 2.2.19 kernelpatch 2 all
- raidtools2
- bzip2
- other dependencies......

mkraid gives the same errors.....
Still not able to get a clue from the /proc/mdstat (has linear too now)
or from the  /var/log/syslog.

VFS reports an error on IDE1 (can't find ext2 filesystem...... having just
shutted down that machine so more on that.Ok booting it.......)

"VFS: Can't find an ext2 filesystem on dev ide1(22,65).
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdd1, or too many
mounted filesystems" (is that possible? by the way).
