About me I've been a computer programmer since I first started typing in program listings on a Commodore Vic 20 when I was about 8. My hobbies include electronics, CNC manufacturing, photography, beer and winemaking.
I live with my wife and lots of left-over parts from unfinished projects in Lincoln, Nebraska, USA.]

13 August 2011, 17:58 UTCLinux RAID Misdetection (and fix)
Earlier this year, I began using a setup with LVM inside of a RAID5.
RAID5 gets me 2TB of storage from 3 1TB drives, with redundancy in the
case of the failure of a single disk, while LVM gets me the ability to
allocate and resize individual filesystems at will. However, I had a
problem that prevented my system from booting unattended, which became
a big problem when there was a storm-related power failure while I
was out of town.
