Testing Linux raid compatibility in ccd: ======================================== Linux side: ----------- Run ./make-test-raids bar on a Linux machine. It creates a bunch of files containing parts of raids with ext2fs in them and leaves md5s in them. Place raidtest_* in /tmp on the FreeBSD machine. (I am happy to give you some of these files if you want to test it and don't have access to a Linux machine) FreeBSD side: ------------- Run ./mountone all on the FreeBSD machine. It will mount the original raids, check the md sum of the files in there and run fsck on them. %% Notes: These testing scripts will use /mnt/tmp and umount it. These testing scripts are not careful to preserve whatever mds/loops and ccds that you might already have. However, as long as they are busy your existing mds/loops and ccds should be fine. You will need ports/sysutils/e2fsprogs on the FreeBSD side. The Linux side needs ports/misc/cstream and shellsupport. I don't think there's a port yet, it's on http://cracauer-forum.cons.org/forum/shellsupport.html Bugs in ext2fs in FreeBSD may make this fail even when the ccd code is fine.
