Your issue is most likely hardware and/or configuration specific. 1. Do you see non software RAID partitions on all the drives? 2. What's your disk configuration (sda, 4 paritions, two RAID, etc). 3. What's the $ fdisk -l output of each device? 4. Can you start the RAID by hand using mdadm? - Gilboa -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
