-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I trying to setup a raid0 without success, using the mdadm 2.3.1 package, compiled from sources. No matters if its linear or stripping raid0 mode, the errors are the same: master# mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md0 --level=0 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda3 master:~# mdadm -E /dev/md0 mdadm: No md superblock detected on /dev/md0. I made a lot's of tests with this, trying to recriate, but without sucess. The strange thing is that the Raid is running: master:~# mdadm -Q -D /dev/md0 /dev/md0: Version : 00.90.01 Creation Time : Fri Feb 17 19:35:21 2006 Raid Level : raid0 Array Size : 1052096 (1027.61 MiB 1077.35 MB) Raid Devices : 2 Total Devices : 2 Preferred Minor : 0 Persistence : Superblock is persistent Update Time : Fri Feb 17 19:35:21 2006 State : clean Active Devices : 2 Working Devices : 2 Failed Devices : 0 Spare Devices : 0 Chunk Size : 64K UUID : ad53c04e:73590c3f:8ea811aa:f81097e1 Events : 0.1 Number Major Minor RaidDevice State 0 8 2 0 active sync /dev/sda2 1 8 3 1 active sync /dev/sda3 But I cant mount the device: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/md0, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so I'm using a Debian Sarge box, updated, but with mdadm compiled from sources. With Debian binaries, the same error occours. Kernel 2.6.8-2-686 Tested with ubuntu 5.10, kernel 2.6.12 compiled from source with the same resoults. Is it a problem if the devices are on the same HD? I'm trying this way because it's a test. If, so thats ok, in real life we will be using 2 SATA 160GB discs. Has anyone else that I can do? If anyone has any clue about this, please, let me know, as it is part of a important project I'm working on, and I gave this solution to "merge" the hard discs in one bigger device.
