Hi Martin,
When I changed to "failed-disk 1" it works, even if I have to use the
undocumented special force. Thank you for your help!
Now my /proc/mdstat says:
# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [linear] [raid0] [raid1] [raid5]
read_ahead 1024 sectors
md0 : active raid1 hda1[0] 64128 blocks [2/1] [U_]
unused devices: <none>
I have some other questions:
How do I interprete the /proc/mdstat information (I understand
personalities, but the rest)?
At what point should I change to auto-detect filesystem tag? Before or
after I have put a filesystem on md0 and before or after I have started to
run the raid in non-degraded mode?
To change boot device from /dev/hdc1 to /dev/md0 I guess that I use rdev to
update the kernel (I'm booting from a floppy for the moment - make zdisk).
What is a recommended chunk-size for partitions in this sizes:
# df
Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdc1 62193 18247 40735 31% /
/dev/hdc3 124443 33999 84018 29% /var
/dev/hdc5 62193 13 58969 0% /tmp
/dev/hdc6 616636 154956 430356 26% /usr
/dev/hdc7 5233940 201492 4766576 4% /opt
Thanks once more!

That's the hint where the problem is :-)

Error in your raidtab file; you're defining disk 0 twice and aren't defining
disk 1; make it failed-disk 1 and it should work.
The file above will overwrite /dev/hda1 and will keep /dev/hdc1 unchanged.
is this what you intended?
Bye, Martin
PS: don't know about the list config, sorry
