Hi E<BR>
<BR>
Well if you got an error from mdadm I would think it was raid related. How about doing an fdisk on /dev/hda or /dev/sda or whatever you have in your box, and printing the partition table- just check to see if there are any partitions formatted like this:<BR>
/dev/sda2 255 19457 154248097+ fd Linux raid autodetect<BR>
if so then you may have setup a raid mirror during installation (although I don't know how that could have happend).<BR>
<BR>
Another thing you can check is the LVM status by running pvscan and lvscan- what do these say?<BR>
