Hello, I'm attempting to migrate from linux 2.4 to 2.6 which is currently booting from my raided promise fasttrak controller. I've followed the instructions on Gerte Hoogewerf's webpage but am not getting very far. I would be very greatfull for any insights and ideas. I get the following error messages when I run dmraid (on 2.4, though I remember getting the same results from Gerte's 2.6 live CD): $ dmraid -vvvddd -ay : : NOTICE: /dev/sda: hpt37x discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: hpt45x discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: isw discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: lsi discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: nvidia discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: pdc discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: sil discovering NOTICE: /dev/hdc: hpt37x discovering NOTICE: /dev/hdc: hpt45x discovering NOTICE: /dev/hdc: isw discovering NOTICE: /dev/hdc: lsi discovering NOTICE: /dev/hdc: nvidia discovering NOTICE: /dev/hdc: pdc discovering NOTICE: /dev/hdc: pdc metadata discovered NOTICE: /dev/hdc: sil discovering NOTICE: /dev/hda: hpt37x discovering NOTICE: /dev/hda: hpt45x discovering NOTICE: /dev/hda: isw discovering NOTICE: /dev/hda: lsi discovering NOTICE: /dev/hda: nvidia discovering NOTICE: /dev/hda: pdc discovering NOTICE: /dev/hda: pdc metadata discovered NOTICE: /dev/hda: sil discovering DEBUG: _find_set: searching pdc_fcdabieb DEBUG: _find_set: not found pdc_fcdabieb NOTICE: added /dev/hdc to RAID set "pdc_fcdabieb" DEBUG: _find_set: searching pdc_fccdgdaf DEBUG: _find_set: searching pdc_fccdgdaf DEBUG: _find_set: not found pdc_fccdgdaf DEBUG: _find_set: not found pdc_fccdgdaf NOTICE: added /dev/hda to RAID set "pdc_fccdgdaf" DEBUG: checking pdc device "/dev/hdc" ERROR: pdc: device /dev/hdc broken in RAID set "pdc_fcdabieb" [1/2] DEBUG: set status of set "pdc_fcdabieb" to 2 ERROR: removing inconsistent RAID set "pdc_fcdabieb" DEBUG: freeing devices of RAID set "pdc_fcdabieb" DEBUG: freeing device "pdc_fcdabieb", path "/dev/hdc" DEBUG: checking pdc device "/dev/hda" ERROR: pdc: device /dev/hda broken in RAID set "pdc_fccdgdaf" [1/2] DEBUG: set status of set "pdc_fccdgdaf" to 2 ERROR: removing inconsistent RAID set "pdc_fccdgdaf" DEBUG: freeing devices of RAID set "pdc_fccdgdaf" DEBUG: freeing device "pdc_fccdgdaf", path "/dev/hda" No Software RAID sets WARN: unlocking /var/lock/dmraid/.lock $ dmraid -r : : /dev/hdc: pdc, "pdc_fcdabieb", striped, ok, 78165248 sectors, data@ 0 /dev/hda: pdc, "pdc_fccdgdaf", striped, ok, 78165248 sectors, data@ 0 $ dmraid -n : : /dev/hdc (pdc): 0x000 promise_id: "Promise Technology, Inc." 0x018 unknown_0: 0x20000 0x01c magic_0: 0x851011 0x020 unknown_1: 0x10000 0x024 magic_1: 0x31e1011 0x028 unknown_2: 0x0 0x200 raid.flags: 0x80 0x204 raid.unknown_0: 0x7 0x205 raid.disk_number: 1 0x206 raid.channel: 1 0x207 raid.device: 0 0x208 raid.magic_0: 0x851011 0x20c raid.unknown_1: 0x10000 0x210 raid.unknown_2: 0xedeeeff0 0x214 raid.disk_secs: 78165297 0x218 raid.unknown_3: 0xffffffff 0x21c raid.unknown_4: 0x2 0x21e raid.status: 0xf 0x21f raid.type: 0x0 0x220 raid.total_disks: 2 0x221 raid.raid0_shift: 7 0x222 raid.raid0_disks: 2 0x223 raid.array_number: 0 0x224 raid.total_secs: 156330496 0x228 raid.cylinders: 9730 0x22a raid.heads: 254 0x22b raid.sectors: 63 0x22c raid.magic_1: 0x5960128 0x230 raid.unknown_5: 0x0 0x234 raid.disk[0].unknown_0: 0x7 0x236 raid.disk[0].channel: 0 0x237 raid.disk[0].device: 0 0x238 raid.disk[0].magic_0: 0x851011 0x23c raid.disk[0].disk_number: 0 0x240 raid.disk[1].unknown_0: 0x7 0x242 raid.disk[1].channel: 1 0x243 raid.disk[1].device: 0 0x244 raid.disk[1].magic_0: 0x851011 0x248 raid.disk[1].disk_number: 65536 0x7fc checksum: 0x80527ba3 Ok /dev/hda (pdc): 0x000 promise_id: "Promise Technology, Inc." 0x018 unknown_0: 0x20000 0x01c magic_0: 0x851011 0x020 unknown_1: 0x0 0x024 magic_1: 0x31d1011 0x028 unknown_2: 0x0 0x200 raid.flags: 0x80 0x204 raid.unknown_0: 0x7 0x205 raid.disk_number: 0 0x206 raid.channel: 0 0x207 raid.device: 0 0x208 raid.magic_0: 0x851011 0x20c raid.unknown_1: 0x0 0x210 raid.unknown_2: 0xedeeeff0 0x214 raid.disk_secs: 78165297 0x218 raid.unknown_3: 0xffffffff 0x21c raid.unknown_4: 0x2 0x21e raid.status: 0xf 0x21f raid.type: 0x0 0x220 raid.total_disks: 2 0x221 raid.raid0_shift: 7 0x222 raid.raid0_disks: 2 0x223 raid.array_number: 0 0x224 raid.total_secs: 156330496 0x228 raid.cylinders: 9730 0x22a raid.heads: 254 0x22b raid.sectors: 63 0x22c raid.magic_1: 0x5960128 0x230 raid.unknown_5: 0x0 0x234 raid.disk[0].unknown_0: 0x7 0x236 raid.disk[0].channel: 0 0x237 raid.disk[0].device: 0 0x238 raid.disk[0].magic_0: 0x851011 0x23c raid.disk[0].disk_number: 0 0x240 raid.disk[1].unknown_0: 0x7 0x242 raid.disk[1].channel: 1 0x243 raid.disk[1].device: 0 0x244 raid.disk[1].magic_0: 0x851011 0x248 raid.disk[1].disk_number: 65536 0x7fc checksum: 0x804e7aa3 Ok
