So the question is, where in all the different configuration files is it listed that I am running on /dev/sda2 and /dev/sdb2? I am sure there is some file on /dev/sdb2 that indicates this, and if I could go in and edit it, I might be able to make this work.
By doing a grep search, I found the following:
linux-aw90:/boot/grub # grep -r "md126" /mnt/md/etc/ grep: /mnt/md/etc/alternatives/xulrunner: No such file or directory /mnt/md/etc/lvm/.cache: "/dev/md126",
So in the lvm cache it stores /dev/md126.
But am I even using lvm? I mean, I don't have dynamically sized partitions anywhere. Does RAID use lvm to keep track of what its partitions?
The /mnt/md/etc/lvm.cache file starts with the line, # This file is automatically maintained by lvm.
Still researching...
When I do a google search on RAID, all the hits are about how to set up RAID, or about how RAID keeps track of data. That information is not helpful for this problem. What I need to know is, how does a running system determine and keep track of what exactly is being used as RAID? If someone can point me to that, then perhaps I can figure out why my 11.4 is thinking that my RAIDed root directory is running actively on /dev/sda2 and /dev/sdb2 while in reality it is actively running on the single partition /dev/sdb5. Then I can perhaps work with the settings to get it running correctly. -- G.O.
