Subject: Strange raid device numbering
Date: Fri, 8 Oct 2010 01:43:18 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101008014318.04d7ded1@werewolf.home> (raw)
Hi...
I'm running kernel 2.6.36-rc6.
I have just built a simple raid0 array with two disks, and I followed what I
had always done:
raid=/dev/md0
ndisk=2
disks="/dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1"
block=4
chunk=256
stride=$((chunk/block))
stripe=$((stride*ndisk))
for i in $disks
do
mdadm --zero-superblock --force $i
done
mdadm -C -f -v $raid --level=0 --chunk=$chunk -n $ndisk $disks
sleep 5
mdadm -S $raid
mdadm --assemble $raid $disks
mkfs.ext4 -b $((block*1024)) -E stride=$stride,stripe-width=$stripe $raid
Strangely, after I reboot, the system insists in numbering it as
md127, instead of md0.
Why ?
How can I force it to be md0 ? (its half aesthetics, half curiosity...)
TIA
