Thanks Dave for your pointer. As I don't have much experiences in debugging XFS or MD RAID; I just took a shortcut. Your input helped a little. I tried to resize the MD partition (for the missing sectors XFS was complaining about) but as the MD superblock is at the end on my partition, after the resize, mdadm could not find back the superblock and I did not want to spend time trying to move the superblock along with the partition resize (don't know if this is feasable). So of one of the two disks; I could mount the resized MD partition as a XFS filesystem after a xfs_repair on it. The folders structure is lost as everything is in random folders in lost+found; but it seems the files are there. So I will create a new MD RAID from the disk I could mount. It seems the setup of openSuse Tumbleweed messed up with my md raid partitions! :-( Thx, -- Issa _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@oss.sgi.com http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
