I installed centos4 on a raid system with 7 400GB Hitachi SATA disks in
RAID 5 on the 3Ware card. I set up a 2.2TB EXT3 Partition /opt.
After the install I rebooted and the system went straight into
maintenance mode....! The system reported a problem with /opt, but I was
able to mount it manually and init 4 with no problems. However a reboot
dropped me straight back into maintanence mode ???
Back in maintenance mode again I tried to used parted to create a
partition, but it says it can't manage a partition greater than 1.72TB -
I thought parted could do > 2TB fs's?
parted output below:
[root@localhost ~]# parted
