By doing the above, you have effectively replaced your version 0.9.0 superblocks with version 0.9.2. I don't know if version 0.9.2 superblocks are larger than 0.9.0, Neil hasn't responded to that yet. Potentially hazardous, who knows. Anyway. This is from your old superblock as described by Sam Hopkins: > /dev/etherd/<blah>: > Chunk Size : 32K This is from what you've just posted: > /dev/etherd/<blah>: > Chunk Size : 64K If I were you, I'd recreate your superblocks now, but with the correct chunk size (use -c). > We'll be happy to pay you for your services. I'll be modest and charge you a penny per byte of data recovered, ho hum. - 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
