Subject: [suse-sparc] RAID troubles

    Hi list,

    I make the raid device (mkraid, with a raidtab that specifies raid 5
    for 8 distinct drives, including one "spare").

    I create a file system (I've tried ext2 and reiser file systems).

    I reboot (sometimes, I've mounted the block device and successfully
    written to it first).

    Each time, on the reboot, the partition tables on most of the disks get
    "lost" (usually, the first and last disk seem to retain their partition
    tables), and the device is unusable.

    I'm not sure what's going on. Any suggestions? I'm running 7.3 and the
    raid is an array on a single scsi controller.

    -Brian
