Sorry, I missed where you said that you rebooted. It sounds very odd. What does "cat /proc/mounts" say? Does your kernel use an initrd? Exactly how did you tell lilo to use /dev/md0? With root=/dev/md0 as an option in lilo.conf, or with append= "root=/dev/md0" or both or something else? NeilBrown -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
