Hello,
I have a pc that I use as a fileserver and I have recently migrated it from
RH 7.3 to Debian Woody (with some stuff from Sarge and Sid in it). I have 6
disks in the pc as follows:
System/OS /dev/hda 4.2 GB
data /dev/hdo 40 GB
data /dev/hdm 80 GB
data /dev/hde 203 GB
data /dev/hdi 203 GB
data /dev/hdk 203 GB
I want to set up 3 disk RAID 5 array using mdadm and software raid. RH had
no problem with it so I know it can be done. The disks that I used are
recognized on the box as hde, hdi, and hdk. I can use fdisk to recognize
hde, but fdisk will not recognize any other disk on the pc. As you can see
from the dmesg, I am using several Maxtor controller cards (they came with
the hard drives) - 1 hard drive per bus, each set as a master. During
startup the BIOS gives the appropriate messages on the hard drives and the
dmesg seems to suggest that the system at least can identify them. However,
I cannot use 4 of the 6 disks in my pc. If I can mount and format them then
I am sure I can set up the RAID array on the 3 I use for a RAID array
If there is any other information that anyone needs, then I would be happy
to supply it.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
TIA,
Greg
