Hi Matias, I wonder why Ubuntu detects raid6 parts as /dev/sdX1 (and counts only 5 disks) while Arch detects /dev/sdX (and counts 6 disks)? Try to assemble raid6 on Arch manually again by issuing: mdadm -S /dev/md0 mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/sdb /dev/sda /dev/sde /dev/sdd /dev/sdc - exactly as shown in mdadm's output on Ubuntu P.S. Still confused why Arch doesn't recognize /dev/sda1 etc. Regards, Alexander On Wed, Sep 23, 2015 at 9:35 PM, Mathias Burén <mathias.buren@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Alexander, > > I didn't try to grow the
