Yes I think rc11 does have the stripe size fix and that is also the
version that I am running here with my FC5.
Try this command:
dmraid -a n && dmraid -a y
I believe that would fix the drive mapping and having both the dmraid
deactivation and activation on one line is fast enough so it won't
mess up your mounted volume. Then recreate your /boot/initrd-(kernel
version here).img file with the /sbin/mkinitrd command and see if that
works.
Have an update. I downloaded the source for dmraid, rc13 and installed
it for my machine. Still have the same problem though.
Detailed message at boot is:
device-mapper: table: 253:0: striped: Couldn't parse stripe destination
device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table
device-mapper: reload ioctrl failed: No such device or address

You should not use Parted unless you REALLY know what you're doing!
Unable to open /dev/mapper/isw_bdbbdbcbda_MyRAID0 - unrecognised disk label.
he he, I like the part about using parted. Funny thing is I didn't! I
used fdisk and made things the "old fashioned" way.
So, I'm running device-mapper 4.5.0 for FC5, is there a newer version?!
Help!
