I have exactly the same problem with RAID 0 promise 20265. Booting with redhat on the "spare" drive takes for ever. I checked dmesg: it is saturated by those error messages(similar to the one below). I did a bonnie++ benchmark--> I hardly get a 10MB sec in read block mode on the RAID 0 partition. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Miroslav BENES" <mbenes@xxxxxxxx> To: <ataraid-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, December 13, 2001 3:26 PM Subject: Re: RAID 0 reports errors > > > hde: read_intr: error=0x10 { SectorIdNotFound }, LBAsect=204877970, sector=6 > > > hde: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error } > > > > are you using /dev/ataraid/d0p1 etc to access the device or /dev/hde etc ? > > I access via /dev/ataraid/d0p1 (FAT32) + ...d0p2 (ext3).
