Thank you for answereing. It turned out to be a problem with the power supply as it couldn't output enough power to run six farly new disks (3 IDE & 3 SCSI) . Eight old disk worked just fine (3 + 5) though. I managed to restore most of the data from the NTFS file systems so I decided to reinstall the Linux server and run some tests with it and found out about the power problem. Always troble with the same disk but when I moved it to another computer and ran Maxtor's hard disk test program several times and no problems. I will still be a bit suspicious about it though, until it's proven itself.. Thanks again. _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@sistina.com http://lists.sistina.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
