Hi. I had a working raid array in an Intel ICH9R controller with the two volumes working ( ok in windows and mandriva 2008 livecd). I booted the Opensuse 10.3RC2 live cd and did "dmraid -ay" and got the following errors: ERROR: isw device for volume "RAID0" broken on /dev/sda in RAID set "isw_bbcfceegje_RAID0" ERROR: isw: wrong # of devices in RAID set "isw_bbcfceegje_RAID0" [1/2] on /dev/sda ERROR: isw device for volume "RAID1" broken on /dev/sda in RAID set "isw_bbcfceegje_RAID1" ERROR: isw: wrong # of devices in RAID set "isw_bbcfceegje_RAID1" [1/2] on /dev/sda ERROR: isw device for volume "RAID0" broken on /dev/sdb in RAID set "isw_chgffgbhfa_RAID0" ERROR: isw: wrong # of devices in RAID set "isw_chgffgbhfa_RAID0" [1/2] on /dev/sdb ERROR: isw device for volume "RAID1" broken on /dev/sdb in RAID set "isw_chgffgbhfa_RAID1" ERROR: isw: wrong # of devices in RAID set "isw_chgffgbhfa_RAID1" [1/2] on /dev/sdb ERROR: no mapping possible for RAID set isw_bbcfceegje_RAID1 ERROR: no mapping possible for RAID set isw_chgffgbhfa_RAID1 Now in the intel bios it says the disks are offline. The livecd must have a bug that destroys all raid arrays. I think the problem is in device-mapper, because I did "dmraid --version" and the device-mapper was "unknown". In mandriva it is 4.11.0. Dmraid is rc14 in both. I don't have any logs from the live boot because the network was not working. Is there any way to recover the raid volumes? I can provide you with all the files needed, just ask.
