Hi, in my Server is a "SIL0680 Rev E" Raid-Controller working with two HDDs mounted. My kernel needet > <*> Silicon Image chipset support to akzept this one and find the mounted HDDs properly. The problem is the RAID-1 Mode, the controller gives back, that the Raid ist working, but my gentoo finds the two HDDs, but not the device for the Raid. But if I activate the following in the Kernel: > [*] Multiple devices driver support (RAID and LVM) <*> RAID support > < > Linear (append) mode < > RAID-0 (striping) mode <*> RAID-1 > (mirroring) mode < > RAID-4/RAID-5 mode < > RAID-6 mode <*> > Multipath I/O support < > Faulty test module for MD < > Device > mapper support ls /dev gives me an "/dev/md0" back. With /dev/md0 however I can't do anything, e.g: > svr linux # mkfs.xfs /dev/md0 Error getting MD array info from > /dev/md0 It seems, that /dev/md0 is a Node for a Software Raid, but i didn't configure one. So why is ist created by udev, when no software-raid is defined? If /dev/md0 is a node for the hardware-raid of the controller, then why can't I use it? Anyone got this controller to work properly? thx ahead...
