I have 5 disks in this machine. One old IDE as system disk and 2x2 SATA in 2 RAIDS. The disks of the failing RAID are plugged into SATA port 3 and 4 according to the printing on the board, but for some weird reason, they show up in the system as sdb and sdd. Before I put them in, the other 2 SATA disks were sda and sdb while the IDE disk was sdc. Now the "old" SATA disks are sda and sdc and the new ones are sdb and sdd. So... Why, for crying out loud, can't SATA 1 be sda to SATA 4 be SDD as it was in the good old times? And which physical disk is the failing one? - -S - -- (o_ Stefan Gofferje | SCLT, MCP, CCSA //\ Reg'd Linux User #247167 | VCP #2263 V_/_ Heckler & Koch - the original point and click interface -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.18 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk/Hzf0ACgkQbQKZlCdPOMMQNgCdEUAtmPMmNv3FHz431rsnX1TK fRUAoIzreeYOORAjvoiv6Fz+EnHHrMC9 =f8ZV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
