Hello, I've got the same kind of problem, except that I'm trying to use RAID 1 (on Fedora Core 4) dmraid 1.0.0.rc8 device-mapper 1.01.02 grub 0.95 # dmraid --debug --verbose -ay DEBUG: _find_set: searching isw_ciehjjjfgd DEBUG: _find_set: not found isw_ciehjjjfgd ERROR: isw: volume Raid-HD0_2 is broken DEBUG: _find_set: searching isw_ciehjjjfgd DEBUG: _find_set: found isw_ciehjjjfgd ERROR: isw: volume Raid-HD0_2 is broken DEBUG: set status of set "isw_ciehjjjfgd" to 16 INFO: Activating GROUP RAID set "isw_ciehjjjfgd" DEBUG: freeing devices of RAID set "isw_ciehjjjfgd" DEBUG: freeing device "isw_ciehjjjfgd", path "/dev/sda" DEBUG: freeing device "isw_ciehjjjfgd", path "/dev/sdc" Please find attached my "dmraid -rD" ...
