IIRC I created the RAID1 array (which took hours), then formatted the resulting /dev/md127 (using gparted) as a single ext4 partition. > This is an unusual configuration. > Generally you partition the disks: sdd1 sde1, then create a RAID of of them: md127, > then you format and mount md127. So clearly the other way around. > You may have messed up something: maybe you have formatted both md127 and md127p1? I don't think so, but I guess it's possible. What I can't understand is why everything appeared to be working before I rebooted. I'm OK with doing it again if need be, but I don't find all this in any way obvious. poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
