One Tip for Erlend:
* Upgrading from Linux 2.4 to 2.6 needs much files/packages to be updated or changed. Dmraid tends to make things even more difficult. Continue with the things you are doing if you know what you are doing :) Consider to install an up-to-date GNU/Linux on a IDE harddisk and doing yours hacks from within this installation.
I've just tried gen2dmraid on my computer, with no success. First it says "Invalid block size 2048 on hdc", I mounted hdc and it turns out that it's part of the CD, probably trivial. The main error is: "No software raid sets". I tried again, specifying -f pdc, but still the same error. I followed the instructions on http://tienstra4.flatnet.tudelft.nl/~gerte/gen2dmraid/ except instead of "modprobe sata_sil" I used "modprobe sata_promise", and instead of "wget http://tienstra4.flatnet.tudelft.nl/~gerte/gen2dmraid/dmraid-dietlibc-1.0.0-rc4"; I copied the file from a floppy disk.
I am using Promise FastTrak Tx2 Plus S150 software raid controller (I think this is the PDC20371).
Thank you,
Erlend
