I finally got this fixed....I booted in rescue mode, deleted the /etc/raidtab file so 
that it does not attempt to start RAID on boot.  That way I was able to boot normally. 
 Then I just grabbed the latest RPM packages for raidtools and popt and upgraded to 
the latest versions.  Works like a champ now....

Subject: Raid install Failure



Hello all, 

I just finished installing a RH 7.2 server on a machine with 5 ide drives.  

/dev/hda - OS install
/dev/hde - Raid Disk 0
/dev/hdg - Raid Disk 1
/dev/hdi -  Raid Disk 2
/dev/hdk - Spare-Disk 1

The 4 drives for RAID are on a Promise ATA100 controller.  I made a RAID 5 partition 
called /dev/md0 with Raid disks 0, 1, and 2 with /dev/hdk as the spare.  When the 
system is booted after the install I get the following error:

Starting up raid devices: /sbin/raidstart: error while loading shared libraries 
libpopt.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
/sbin/raid0run: error while loading shared libraries libpopt.so.0: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory
md0

**An error occurred during RAID startup
**Dropping you to a shell; the system will reboot when you leave the shell
Give root password for maintenance
(or type Control-D for normal startup):

When I boot the system in single user mode, the libpopt.so.0 library exists.  I don't 
know why its complaining about missing library.  Could someone please shed some 
light???...

Thanks
Tinu
