NOT what I need!

We just had a one-hour power failure due to a tree having been blown onto some power lines.

Now the webserver doesn't boot.

It just says 'L 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A 9A'

This would be trivial to fix if I had poplulated the spare boot partition, but I never got around to it. Now what am I going to do. Mandrake's rescue disk has no raid support. The Knoppix I have has no support for my raid device...

Maybe I'll have another look at the knoppix site. Maybe a later release will help.

Meanwhile, don't expect me to have working mail (AGAIN!) while its being fixed. In the meantime send all mail to swestrup@gmail.com!

Get a SuSE LiveCD, I think they support RAID.

I just tried Gentoo, and it all worked except that Gentoo uses udev and my system uses devfs and I make lilo happy enough to re-lilo :-(

What does SuSE use for /dev ?
