I can try 2.6.24 tonight... any particular RC to try? My full setup is a Tyan K8SR, Dual Opteron 270's, 4GB DDR400 ECC/REG, Areca ARC-1160ML2, 16x500gb Seagate 7200.9 drives in one RAID6 volume, PC Power & Cooling 1KW-SR 1000w power supply. I previously had two 8 port RAID controllers and two RAID5 arrays in the box before upgrading, but my largest previous volume was roughly 2TB after RAID5 (8x300gb) and dm-crypt (cryptsetup-luks) worked just fine on both arrays. I've formatted the array (without dm-crypt) with reiserfs, mounted it and started a dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/raid and let it run overnight... sofar there is 1.8TB written to a file so I'm relatively confident that power isn't an issue. I've also updated the Areca to the latest firmware/bios/bootrom, and verified my drives are on the supported list. --------------------------------------------------------------------- dm-crypt mailing list - http://www.saout.de/misc/dm-crypt/ To unsubscribe, e-mail: dm-crypt-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: dm-crypt-help@xxxxxxxx
