I implemented RAID 0 during the installation, with no apparent problems, however I see the following occurring in my boot log (this is hopefully the relevant part that I snipped):
<3>md: invalid raid superblock magic on md0 <4>md: md0 has invalid sb, not importing! <4>md: no nested md device found <6>md: ... autorun DONE.
I am not sure what this means, this is very new to me. I "googled" and it seemed that this can occur when adding to an existing array.
All seems to be working okay, but I guess this is not good. Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this? I especially would like to know if I need to run something like mkraid, am I automatically going to "nuke" the contents of my drives.
This is on a home machine so I guess I have some latitude for implementing solutions.
I setup software RAID when I installed 8.0, and it went smooth and has been running very nice since the install (1 1/2 yr). I have since upgraded to 8.2. Mine says the same thing, and has since the beginning IIANM. I believe it does several checks, all of which might not be applicable to software RAID. At any rate, mine has worked flawlessly for 1 1/2 years, so my suggestion is, don't fix what ain't broken. -- Joe Morris New Tribes Mission Email Address: Joe_Morris@ntm.org Web Address: http://www.mydestiny.net/~joe_morris Registered Linux user 231871 God said, I AM that I AM.
