hi! just compiled a patched 2.4.12-xfs-ataraid kernel now i can partition my array using /dev/ataraid/disc0/disc (i'm using devfs) then i create xfs-partitions ... the root-partition is /dev/ataraid/disc0/part1 i can even mount the partitions & copy data on them. so i copied a whole root-fs onto the first partition.
now i wanna boot off the raid0-array-partition1 (using grub), but it says it can't find a root partition (gave the kernel the root=/dev/ataraid/disc0/part1) even tried with the other names (d0p1), doesn't work either.
as mentioned, kernel boots off fine (i'm using a temporary non-raid disk to boot grub & the kernel), but it can't mount the rootfs. is it a xfs-related issue? what am i doing wrong?
please help greetings Martin
