Yeah, that's a given. The problem isn't so much with the RAID it's that I can't mount the partition *on* the RAID, and I don't know why or how I could have gotten myself in this situation. > In the meantime, if you've got an external USB/eSATA/network drive > large enough to back up to then I'd suggest getting a backup complete > before doing anything else. Just my 2 cents on that one. Because the data I'm trying to reach is currently only *on* the RAID (the only other copies were stolen), backing up at this point is beyond my ability. Thanks for your feedback and for trying to help though, I appreciate it :) Jeff. -- 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
