Topic: Areca Raid Card Partitions
Hi,
I've got an areca raid 1260 card. Noone on the net has yet to be able to tell me howto grow my raid partitions without re partitioning and remaking a FS. GParted looks VERY promising for me on every front.
My issue is though that when I use the LiveCD my /dev/sda device does not show in Gparted. THere is a kernel module called arcmsr.ko that is the controlling module for the card. But I don't have clear direction on what to do with it. I don't see a familiar module on the blue screen list when I first enter into GParted. I seem to see something for 3ware etc but not Areca.
First should I do that load module manually thing and type something at the command prompt?
Second what should I be typing?
Third am I giving you enough of a description for you to know what I'm talking about?
Maybe there's something else wrong???
I hope that GParted can finally enable me to add a disk at a time to my raid/volume set and continue to add space to my system.
Let me know what I should do?
