the error msg i get is
/dev/md1 file system size ( according to the superblock) is 2560351 the pyhical size of the device is 2560320 either the superblock or the partion table is corrupt
/dev/md1: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY
i get this msg on the first boot with md1 as the primary boot partion
i thought i was being pretty careful about rebooting after all partion changes
the build order/process is
build and test hda debian 2.4.26 with raid compiled in
sfdisk to transfer partions sfdisk -d /dev/hda | sfdisk /dev/hdc
set hdc partion type to fd
reboot
mk file system on hdc and copy hda to hdc
reboot
test hdc as primary boot
reboot
create md1 mdadm --create /dev/md1 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 missing /dev/hdc1
there are 3 md devices / home & var
reboot
mount md device for test
change hda partion type to fd
reboot
edit fstab and grub on md devices
shutdown
boot from mepis rescue disk
mdadm --add /dev/md1 /dev/hda1
wait for resync
shutdown
reboot from md1
thanks rob
