mounting software raid

mounting software raid

Post by Isaac Ven » Sun, 04 Feb 2001 12:33:39



I started with a reiserfs partition on a disk.  I wanted to mirror it to
another disk so I set up the software raid level 1 on it.  When I ran
mkraid the disks were busy for a while and when it was done, there was a
copy on both.  Now I can mount either disk as /dev/hdb1 and/or /dev/hdh
and see all the files in place.  However, if I make a change to one, it
is not affected on the other.  I assume I acutally want to mount the new
raid device /dev/md0 that was created.  I can't seem to mount it tho.
It asks for filesystem type and I don't know what switch to use.  Can
anyone help me or point me in the direction of a better howto than the
one at linuxdoc.org?
Thanks.
