Hi, > have you tried with -p in order prevent dmraid from partition activation > and used kpartx to activate them yet to see, if that makes any diffrence > for you ? as previously said, "kpartx -l" worked, but "kpartx -a" gave errors. Here they are: device-mapper: create ioctl failed: No such device or address device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument Also, I attach the strace output for the command. Meanwhile I booted with Knoppix 5.1 and grml 1.1 to examine the situation. Both contain drmaid rc13 and Device-Mapper 4.10.0 (or 4.11.0). Both were able to initialize the two RAIDs correctly with partitions. I had to activate them one after the other, a simple "dmraid -ay" didn't work (IIRC it activated only one RAID). But it worked. So I integrated dmraid rc13 in my normal environment. Again, it failed to initialize the partitions. The version of Device-Mapper there is 4.14.0 (Kernel 2.6.28.9). So it may be a problem in the kernel. Should I file a bug, perhaps even a regression? My environment is a quite restricted one and contains an old glibc (2.3.2 or so). Does that matter?
