I have a root raid implemented server and it not booting anymore. I tried to use that harddisc as secondary hard disk to on of my other linux installation..so i can take a backup of files. The other installation has raid precompiled....as in booting process it checks for raid arays and at shutdown it gives messages regarding md devices. however it doesn't show any dev in lsdev or /proc/mdstat. My problem is when i try to mount it using "mount -t ext2 /dev/md0 /mnt/hdc1" it gives me error as "wronf fs, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/md0.........................(aren't you trying to mount a block device on a logical device)". Kindly show me the way to mount the filesystem. thanks and regards, Pankaj Agarwal
