Hello, I just attempted to upgrade a system from 2.6.17 (gentoo revision 8) w/ 1.20.0X.13 to 2.6.20 (gentoo revision 4) with the in tree arcmsr driver. On the 2.6.17 kernel there are 2 ~4TB partitions that are visible on the system as /dev/sdb1 & /dev/sdc1. When the system is booted with the 2.6.20 kernel /dev/sdc1 is gone and /dev/sdb1 is properly reported as a 4TB EFI partition but fsck rejects the the filesystem as corrupt. Is this a regression or has there been a fundamental change in the way arcmsr represents the array to the block layer? Here is the info on the RAID card: Controller Name ARC-1170 Firmware Version V1.39 2005-12-13 BOOT ROM Version V1.39 2005-12-13 Serial Number Y605CAAVAR700117 Unit Serial # =20 Main Processor 500MHz IOP331 CPU ICache Size 32KBytes CPU DCache Size 32KBytes / Write Back System Memory 256MB / 333MHz Any idea as to what's going on?
