Any ideas on how to restart the raid and tell md to use the XFS filesystem? Thank you, James -----Original Message----- From: James D.

It is part of a two drive array. Through Yast, I get an error saying it doesn't know its file system (XFS). <snip> Error It is not allowed to assign a mount point to a device with nonexistent or unknown file system. <snip>
From the CLI, how can I restart the array and pass to md what the filesystem is.
