Hi List,
The following Problem:
I dd'ed a whole harddisk with the RAID Partitions to another harddisk. The new
harddisk was a little bit bigger than the original one. Now if i'am doing an
mdadm -E /dev/hdc on the new harddisk i get this:
pentium-test:/proc/ide # mdadm -E /dev/hdc
mdadm: No super block found on /dev/hdc (Expected magic a92b4efc, got 00000000)
There must be a way to find the superblock on the new device... is there anyone
who has a solution for this problem?
I thougt about searching for a92b4efc on the device...
if you know the size of the old device you can find it starting at
(sector aligned) DEVICE_SIZE - 64k
since you do not give more information on how your raid was set-up prior
to this activity it is difficult to give firther help
Regards,
L.
