Hi!

I have Samba File Server with RAID 1 mirroring.
The problem is that after booting bare.i root=/dev/hda1 noinitrd ro
from my Slackware 10.2 Install CD
I can`t boot up my linux anymore.

Everything stops when booting root file system,
simply it can`t boot root file system anymore
I can only log in as single user as root with read-only priviledges to restore the file system, but how?
When booting root file system something is corrupted, but what?


I think it is connected with md0 device (mirroring)...
But why it happens so, because I only run bare.i root=/dev/hda1 noinitrd ro,
so after that this problem appeared

Why, what should I do now?!
Any suggestions?

Thank you.

if u can login single user then edit /etc/fstab comment the line md0
save it then reboot system , should work this way

after that troubleshoot again what cos ur problem

bare.i root=/dev/hda1 noinitrd rw <- see this

How should I comment, did you think with # or ;
?
What is the main goal doing this way?

hehe

if said comment i always figure out it is #

bare.i root=/dev/hda1 noinitrd ro <- u do this mean u Read Only

bare.i root=/dev/hda1 noinitrd rw <- do this mean Read Write

then u cannn edit the fstab file


comment / close # the line where is the posibility have a problem for system to detect via startup
need to close otherwise system stillllllllllllllllllll want to read that

so give a try close the line md0 which u expected got some problem then once u can login there then u can do trouble shooting to what is the real matter

give a try ,... dont gip up

I think I did`n explain my problem quite well.
I can boot up Linux but till root file system!!
LILO is booting the system till root file system.
It stops with telling me that something is corrupted, that there is need to run --rebuild-tree
After that I can log in as root@(none) single user
I can edit any file so I have rw
Most important is that if I take a look in /proc/mdstat file - md0 2 out of 2 mirrors are running, also the third partotions which are md1
So I think because of running bare.i root=/dev/hda1 noinitrd ro there is some missmach in md0 and it affects the root file system.

But I don`t understand why?
So it means I can run no more bare.i root=/dev/hda1 noinitrd ro in the future because it affects the file system?

I would like to understand why it happened so, only beacause of running bare.i root=/dev/hda1 noinitrd ro
So how should I manage mirroring in future, most of all I`m interested in monitoring my mirrors so that if there is some error I would know it immediately with some promt or sound
