Hi all, I have an older (14.04) Ubuntu system with / mounted on a raid6 (/dev/md2) and /boot on a raid1 (/dev/md0). I recently added my 7th disk, and everything seemed to be going well. I added the partition to /dev/md0 and it resynced fine. I added the partition to /dev/md2, and everything seemed fine there as well. Then, while it was resyncing /dev/md2, the transfer speed got very slower, and started going slower. 7kb/sec... 4kb/sec... 1kb/sec... and then eventually the system just stopped responding. Now, on power up, i just get a cursor on the screen. I surely need to boot with a rescue disk of some sort, but from there, I'm not sure exactly when I should do. Any suggestions are very welcome! Thanks, Allie
