Hi, I have a Gigabyte mainboard with a JMicron controller. It gets recognized by dmraid without problems but it creates strange device names. Here's the directory listing: crw-rw---- 1 root root 10, 63 2006-11-07 08:39 control brw-rw---- 1 root disk 254, 0 2006-11-09 20:48 jmicron_JRAID ^A brw-rw---- 1 root disk 254, 1 2006-11-07 07:39 Ubuntu-root And this is the output of "dmraid -tay": jmicron_JRAID ^A: 0 312541184 mirror core 2 131072 nosync 2 /dev/sdb 0 /dev/sdc 0 jmicron_JRAID ^A1: 0 312528447 linear /dev/mapper/jmicron_JRAID ^A 63 As you can see, the device name contains spaces and a ^A (0x01) at the end of the device name which may cause problems when FDISK tries to sync the devices using ioctl calls. The device for the partition doesn't get created too. Any idea what's the problem? The output of "uname -a": Linux mjcoder 2.6.19-rc2-g4d99bfac-dirty #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Oct 17 11:45:46 CEST 2006 x86_64 GNU/Linux Regards, Mark Junker _______________________________________________ Ataraid-list mailing list Ataraid-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ataraid-list
