[SOLVED] Using fakeraid for samba share, how do I mount

[akullen]

Hi,

Newbe when it comes to linux so this might be an easy thing.

I have just installed Ubuntu 10.10 server on and old pc to use it as a backup server for my and my kids pc's.

The pc I use for the Ubuntu server has two sata disks on a fasttrak 378 controller, fakeraid as I have learned, and a single pata disk. I have installed ubuntu on the single pata disk and was planing to use the fakeraid as the samba share.

df ->

/dev/mapper/ubuntu-root
                      75287688    985120  70478136   2% /
none                   1024032       248   1023784   1% /dev
none                   1030124         0   1030124   0% /dev/shm
none                   1030124       336   1029788   1% /var/run
none                   1030124         0   1030124   0% /var/lock
/dev/sda1               233191     20198    200552  10% /boot

ls -l in /dev/mapper ->
totalt 0
crw------- 1 root root 10, 59 2011-01-15 10:01 control

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      7 2011-01-15 10:01 ubuntu-swap_1 -> ../dm-1

dmraid -r ->
/dev/sdc: pdc, pdc_ccficdjhfc, mirror, ok, 238281250 sectors, data(a) 0
/dev/sdb: pdc, pdc_ccficdjhfc, mirror, ok, 238281250 sectors, data(a) 0

I'm guessing that the fakeraid is not mounted on the system from the df output.

So, finally, to the question: How do I mount this fakeraid with a mirror setup? should I mount one of the disks, and if so which?

Thank you in advance for any answers or proposals

And of course, how do I keep the mount at reboot?

Thanks again.

Solved it my self. It was the "/dev/mapper/pdc_ccficdjhfc1" I should mount. I guess this is the partition, correct? Once I got it mounted and verified it worked I added it into /etc/fstab. After a reboot a uuid was created so I went ahead changed to that in /etc/fstab. Now it all works fine.
