Hi everybody, to begin with: I can create raids in linux but that is about it. I am quite inexperienced. I had created a raid5 setup of which one drive failed. This resulted in a degraded setup. After this happend it continued to work for a while afterwards (not recommended but no possiblity to replace the drive) After a while the whole md0 stopped working and upon rebooting I get an error that I cannot mount md0 because there is something wrong with the superblock. I tried to reconstruct the raid by building a new raid5, this didn't help very much. I did not recreate the filesystem as I thought this would destroy the information on that disk. Using some software I did see that most data was still available on the disk, but not in the right way (windows system with a raid recovery tool on another disk) How can I reconstruct the raid5 in such a way that I can copy all information off the disk? Can anyone please tell me how? or point me to a beginners tutorial / wiki? thanks! -- This message was sent on behalf of junk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx at openSubscriber.com http://www.opensubscriber.com/messages/linux-raid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/topic.html -- 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
