Hey all -- just thought I'd report back. Single User mode was enough to take care of doing the 'mdadm --grow' and I just did everything else there too (resize2fs). It was the block size kernel sync (or lack thereof) and then just being up and running with alll those processes... hahaha. Thanks everyone for the quick help! -Ben -- 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
