RE: [Devil-Linux-discuss] mdadm and raid...

[Torres G. D. <dtg...@ae...>]

i'm using a snapshot from the cvs. compiled without any errors. and well,
no, i didn't readh ch01s05.html, but i've done all the things that are
described there. The problem is that:

"mdadm --create /dev/md0 --chunk=64 --level=raid1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/hda1
/dev/hdc1"

returns a "couldn't open /dev/md0". Are you using a raid on dl? I was
thinking that maybe there was an option missing on the kernel config, but if
its working for you, it has to work for me :)
