Where did the linux-raid mailing list go?
Is anybody else with software RAID on their 6.x systems seeing the
following in their /var/log/dmesg logs? (It also appears in messages log.)
request_module[md-personality-2]: Root fs not mounted
do_md_run() returned -22
I've seen this personally on 6.2 and 6.1 and have seen others with it in
6.0 For me, it seems that the RAID is working normally - well, I don't get
kernel panics anyway - but I do have some issues with it still. Also, on
halt/restart I see the following on the screen:
Turning off md devices
md2 still mounted device or resource busy [FAILED]
Well, that's not verbatim because I can't read fast enough. I've seen this
behavior on 6.2 and 6.1.
My biggest problem is that when I try to upgrade the kernel to 2.2.16,
whether it be from source or by RPM the end result is *always* fatal when
booting the 2.2.16 kernel. If I'm lucky I get mid-way through a boot and
get a kernel panic, if I'm not lucky the system locks during the 'Loading
Linux......' phase. I have yet to upgrade a soft-RAIDed system's kernel to
2.2.16. Argh. Non-RAID systems function fine with my kernel upgrading, by
RPM or by source.
Does anybody here have software RAID, RedHat 6.x, and kernel-2.2.16 ? If
so, what's your config, and how'd you do it?
I've tried this with both Intel PIIX3 IDE chipset motherboards and ALi 15x3
IDE chipsets. I'm RAIDing two 8.4GB hard drives. md0 = hda1 (128MB) &
hdc1 (128MB) in RAID0 for swap space, md1 = hda5 (32MB) & hdc5 (32MB) in
RAID1 for /boot, and md2 = hda6 (7GB) & hdc6 (7GB) in RAID1 for /. There
are no other partitions.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
