Earlier Phil had me ddrescue sde1 because it had pending sectors I believe. Should I use sde1 or sdz1(ddrescued version)? Also when this whole thing started. md127_raid process was using 100% cpu, but nothing seemed to be happening, No numbers changed, nothing that I could tell anyway. Any suggestions on if the same thing happens when I run the revert-reshape? Could one of my libraries be behind a version somewhere?
