yeap, actually i tried once with:
mkinitrd --with=raid0
and once with:
mkinitrd --ifneeded
i also tried to compile raid0 in the kernel and i still get the same
errors.
my setup look like this:
[/dev/hda]
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 16 32224+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda2 17 1023 2030112 5 Extended
/dev/hda5 17 118 205600+ 82 Linux swap
/dev/hda6 119 1023 1824448+ fd Linux raid autodetect
[/dev/hdc]
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdc1 * 1 555 4195768+ fd Linux raid autodetect
/dev/hda1 is mounted under /boot
/dev/hda6 & /dev/hdc1 are concatenated with raid0 and are mounted under
/dev/md0
The exact error messages are:
Oops! md0 not running, giving up
Bad md_map in ll_rw_block
EXT2-fs: Unable to read superblock
Unable to mount root fs at 09:00
The funny thing is, that when i am booting using kernel 2.2.16-3 ,
(downloaded from RedHat in RPM format) , using raid0 as a module and an
initrd image everythin work like a charm!
I tried very hard that my new kernel resembles the one i got form RedHat
in RPM, but it seems that i am missing something
Any more ideas?
