I looked into this and cannot find raidtab config file. All I could find when running whereis raidtab was /usr/share/man/man5/raidtab.5.gz Do I need to install extra packages for this? I looked in the add/remove packages but cannot find anything relevant unless it is under Development tools or Kernel Development. thanks Marc On Fri, 2006-01-27 at 14:15 -0700, Eric Sisler wrote: > On Fri, 2006-01-27 at 13:47, Marc Leveille wrote: > > > I followed your advice and was able to make a file system on /dev/mdo.
