Mr. Hare, please pick up Mr. Tortoise on line 2. If you'd done it via the network, it'd be *done* now. Oh well, this way you can learn useful things about RAID controllers, the SCSI subsystem, and how much patience you have.
Just great. Looks like this is driven by the ips kernel module according to a grep through drivers-scsi---is that correct? Nothing in that module about RAID tools, and I definitely don't have a ServeRAID of any type at work or at home, so I can't actually try anything out.
Hm. You might have had better luck doing the scsi-add-single-device thing.
mke2fs writes 00s to the first 512 bytes of the device if you're not on a Sparc and there isn't a BSD disklabel there. So no parbreastions will be present.
OK. Just remember that vagueness really makes things difficult when dealing with computer problems.
In comp.os.linux.misc, on Thu 09 February 2006 01:54, mm OK, let's start with the basics: Do you know what Usenet is? Do...
Hi, I have a MIPS system running kernel 2.4 on a dual core board. While running a test...
If fdisk can't open the device and you're root, the kernel isn't seeing the device. So you should check the output of dmesg for any weirdness, then add the device using whatever RAID-specific commands you did before or catting toproc-scsi-scsi .
