Hey list I want to get RAID1 running on a system currently running with no RAID. I followed the RAID howto I added one more disk and created a raidtab file with my currently running disk as failed-disk. I made my raid device on my new disk, gave him a filesystem, dumped my currently running disk on it, modified lilo.conf, ran lilo, and rebooted on the raid disk. It worked great. According to /proc/mdstat, My raid disk was OK, in degraded mode. I changed my failed-disk into a raid-disk in the raidtab file, and raidhotadd(ed) my old disk in the array. Again, it worked fine, and after reconstruction, the raid array was no longer in degraded mode, and working fine (still according to /proc/mdstat). My problem is, each time I reboot, the raid is in degraded mode again, as if I had never modified the raidtab. If I raidhotadd my old disk, it will be OK again, until the next reboot, and so on. Does anybody know what's wrong?
