Hi, I have a system with two IDE controllers running RAID1. As a test I powered down, removed one drive (hdc), and powered back up. System came up fine, so powered down installed a new drive (hdc) And powered back up. /proc/mdstat indicatd RAID1 active with hda only. I thought it would Auto add the new hdc drive... Also when I removed the new drive and added The original hdc, the swap partitions

When a new system CentOS-4.4 is built the swap partition is always reversed... Note md3 below, the raidtab is OK, I have tried various raid commands to correct. swapoff -a raidstop /dev/md3 mkraid /dev/md3 --really-force swapon -a And then I get a proper ourput for /proc/mdstat, but when I reboot /proc/mdstat again reads as below, with md3 [0] [1] reversed. [root]# cat /proc/mdstat

Hello, We have a four-node RHEL4 RAC cluster running OCFS2 version 1.2.8-2 and the 2.6.9-67.0.4hugemem kernel. The cluster has been really stable since we upgraded to 1.2.8-2 early this year, but this morning, one of the nodes fenced and rebooted itself, and I wonder if anyone could glance at the below remote syslogs and offer an opinion as to why. First, here's the output of

How can I use fdisk to partition when installing CentOS4 instead of using 'auto' or disk-druid I want to make RAID 'fd' type partitions for hda and hdc I tried every ctrl-alt Fx and can't get to a shell TIA Gerald

Does someone have an example mkisofs command with arguments to create a CD from the files on the CentOS CD? Since we are building servers, all the data is on CentOS4 CD1. I plan to modify it to include a kickstart file and remove some of the things on there that I don't need. I use something like this on the Cobalt Networks servers, need mods to work on CentOS. (following on one line)

I get a lot of these errors when running CentOS4. Kernel Panic - not syncing: drivers/ide/pci/pix.c:390 spin_lock (drivers/ide/ide.c:c306ad68) already locked by drivers/ide/ide- iops.c/1234. Must be something in the drivers or the kernel, it does not happen using 2.4.x kernels. Maybe some kind of a race condition? Anyone else see these? Gerald

Hi, Trying to get vga console and a serial console to both work. I can get either one to fully work but not both. When using serial, I do still get a login prompt on the vga, But not all the boot up output. Seems like half to the vga and the rest to the serial port I added lines to /etc/inittab # console port T0:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -L ttyS0 115200 And added to /etc/lilo.conf
