Well. that *was* fun (FSVO "fun").Having repartitioned sda to match sdb, and rebuilt the raid,all looked good. Except, the system wouldn't boot, hence my absence from the list!
After several days fiddling with recovery disks, knoppix, etc without any succes, I finally threw in the towel, reformatted everything, and installed jessie. That wasn't a total waste of time, as it was on my todo list anyway; just not quite yet!
Ah well, I'm back up, with a working RAID1, and, of course openvpn is now happily working. That must be some degree of success.
Thank you, Reco for your help and advice; really appreciated. Cheers, Tony -- Tony van der Hoff | mailto:tony@vanderhoff.org Buckinghamshire, England |
