Lacie 5Big2 Failed After Firmware Update

[Mijzelf]

Great. That looks fine.

Apparently busybox has some problems with big numbers. I think it somehow truncated the startpoint of the end-dump, starting much earlier. That is solved now.

I'll continue then the USB copy in sequence until I get to the end and I'll send you the info you requested once it's done. Again, THANKS!

[unlucky1]

Umm, weird, no?

Code: Select all

root@(none):/ # dd-64 if=/dev/sdb2 bs=1M count=64 | gzip >/mountpoint/sdb2_start.gz

Well, yes. Maybe a time daemon is running which switched back the time while copying?

I'll send you the info you requested once it's done.

Which information do you mean?

[unlucky1]

You can repeat that for the other 4 partitions, where you of course also change the names of the output files.
Then also do
Code:

cat /proc/partitions >>/mountpoint/environment
ls -l /dev/sd*2 >>/mountpoint/environment
mdadm --examine /dev/sd[abcde]2 >>/mountpoint/environment

Oh, and when I tried to back up sdd2, it told me not found!

But it's there?

The device node isn't there

mknod -m 666 /dev/sdd2 b 8 50

sdf2 :whistle (thinky made an error in the command when copying)

[fvdw]

:disapprove

Well, yes. Maybe a time daemon is running which switched back the time while copying?

no time daemons in the standalone kernel
