Hi, I am having problems with the RAID 5 option on SuSE 8.2, 9.0, 9.1. On each of the version the are diferent issues, SuSE 9.1: First notice during the setup, the systems stops responding after a few MB have been copied, during this time I executed the command "cat /proc/mdstat" which will make the Raid volumen usefull again, ones the system is instaled the problem persisted. SuSE 9.0 & 8.2: Kernel panics, the parity disc 4/4 is never done. Reconstruct has to be issue with Knoppix bootcd. Loading the same volumen with any other Linux distro will make the volumen usefull without issues. My config: AMD64 3200 1.5GB ram Asus k8v Deluxe Nvidia 5900 2 Adaptec 29160 with 2 IBM 36GB each Thanks David - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
