So, i have this in my kernel :

linear
md_mod

i have made a proper /etc/raidtab and this:

# mkraid /dev/md0
cannot determine md version: no MD device file in /dev.

shows up. Does anyone have a clue how to solve this?

thanks for replying, however, i get this :

# mknod /dev/md0
mknod: missing operand after `/dev/md0'
Try `mknod --help' for more information.
