RAID1 problem on server, urgent help needed!

[savage]

Hi all, I've just been putting some extra HDD's into my server to RAID1 as /dev/md2.

I created the raid device, and formatted the filesystem to ext3, copied some data onto the drive, unmounted and rebooted, everything was fine, so I updated fstab to mount /home from /dev/md2 instead of /dev/md1 (which I'm replacing).

Upon every bootup I receive an error about superblock someone or other (I'll post the exact message later) and get forced to login as root.

Upon investigation, it appears that /dev/md2 doesn't exist, so I recreate it and reboot, same error.

I can't edit fstab to change the /home mount back to /dev/md1 (which I think would let me boot normally) because the root filesystem is still in read-only mode.

Any suggestions anyone?

Thanks in advance, Savage

I'm not panicing yet, but give it a few hours, it's resyncing the disks now, once that's done I'm going to reboot again and start preying.

Panic over, I was being retarded and creating the md device based on /dev/hdb and not /dev/hdb1.



I can breathe again now.
