I can force mount /dev/sda2 or /dev /sdb1 to mount as ext3 and I can read the data just fine.
If the data is fine, I would assemble the array in degraded mode using just one of the two drives, then hot-add the 2nd one later. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
