What I have been talking about is the RAID configuration process in the BIOS on the S5000VSA board. As I was told by Eric this should be ISW and not DDF1, I guess it is not possible to let the configurator on S5000VSA board create DDF1 format? So, I am wondering why this RAID is detected as DDF1, if it should be ISW. But this will have to answered by the reporter (I do not have this hardware so I cannot do tests personally). > I guess that you have a metadata in ddf format.

I cannot do this as the problems on the reporters side appear already at installation time. So what I have is a core file from the reporter and I have to analyze this with the same package and debuginfo versions as on the installation medium. Currently I got: 1. core file 2. Output from dmraid -r -vvv -d dmraid -s -ccc -d 3. strace from the failing command dmraid -s -ccc -d ddf1_4c534920202020201000005500000000330adc0c00000a28 4. dumps of the metadata with dmraid -rD I can provide these on request if interested (directly).
