Well I got my raid5 working with software raid in linux. Wasn't totally what I had in mind but it works out better this way.
I installed linux (ubuntu) on an extra ide 60GB drive I wasn't using at the time.
I used these instructions and restarted then saw the md1 was actually my raid5 array. Created /media/raid and put the right entry into fstab so it would get mounted at boot. Should I ever move the raid 5 to another install or upgrade some hardware (to use use 5 drives) I should be able to just add another disk to the array.
I have my shares setup with samba and copied my data to the raid 5 with no problems. |
