HELP! AmiRaid...
 

Hello all,

:Pengy:I think I have a big problem. I went to loggin to my Win 2k server, and I saw a message stating that my Samba Shares on my File server were not loading. WTF??? So I KVM over to that box, and find that I have the following message:

AmiRaid: HyperDisk driver version 01.01.07
AmiRaid: HyperDisk Firmware Version 2.4.0.919168
AmiRaid: ERROR: no controler found, driver exiting.
/lib/amiraid.o: init_module: Device or resource busy
autodetecting RAID arrays

...autorun DONE
kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k block-major-101, errno=2
VFS: Cannot open root device 65:01
Kernel Panic: VFS: unable to mount root fs on 65:01

Can someone tell me what is up? I kinda think my RAID controler has went out. What does this mean for my array if it has? Any help would be very much appreciated.

By the way, I am running RAID level 0. My Raid Controler is built into the motherboard. If I change out the Motherboard, will my problem be fixed?

No controller found would be refrring to the ata controller of the drive itself as the kernel saw the Ami controller. I've had similar problems when using multiple ata controllers in one box (well only since the Promise Ultra/100 Tx2 - Ultra/66 cards are very well-behaved).

Check cabling, drive tempertatures and do a 'cat /proc/iterrupts' and lspci -vb' to see how your hardware showed up on boot.

RAID0? I hope there was nothing important on that rig.

Bump..

Any more explanations on this?

Any more infotmation on what you've tried to do on your end?

Not yet! I thought about getting another motherboard with a RAID controler, and trying that.

By the way, getting the new motherboard is what fixed the issue. My other motherboard was fried by too much dust accumulating on AGP slot. You could see the burn marks..:eek:
