Re: Problems with software RAID on SATA



Quoting Stephen Tait <tait@digitallaw.co.uk>:


As you can see, the only mention of md2 is the "md: md2 stopped" line, whereas of course I'd be expecting a "raid1: raid set md2 active with 2 out of 2 mirrors" message. Does anyone more au fait with kernel software RAID know why the kernel won't even attempt to start md2?


Just for fun, have you tried re-partitioning your disks to create a new array?
It looks like your were using the entire disks of sda and sdb?
Try making a raid 1 from something like sda2 and sdb2. Ignore the first partition. You may have to zero the superblock prior. I think your system is fine, if you can manually create an array, mount it and start using it. If its not happening on boot, then there's something little thats not making it initialize.
But who knows for sure.

Hope you get it working.

Cheers,
Mike
