This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --Boundary_(ID_NJ6f84cYX0LrTthHlONlgQ) Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Content-disposition: inline (Sorry to insist, I'm still blocked with this "unable to write data to disk" dislaber editor problem. I really need to solve it urgently because I need new hd space. Is it possible that this problem occurs because the swap partition is also idad1s1? Perhaps you have some ideas I can try? --Boundary_(ID_NJ6f84cYX0LrTthHlONlgQ) Content-type: message/rfc822 Received: from [192.168.1.74] by mail.etat.lu (mshttpd); Thu, 15 Jan 2004 01:25:01 +0100 Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2004 01:25:01 +0100 From: Didier Wiroth <didier.wiroth@mcesr.etat.lu> Subject: ERROR: Unable to write data to disk idad1 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Message-id: <174b315246.15246174b3@etat.lu> MIME-version: 1.0 X-Mailer: iPlanet Messenger Express 5.2 HotFix 1.14 (built Mar 18 2003) Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-language: fr Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Content-disposition: inline X-Accept-Language: fr Priority: normal Hi, I run freebsd 5.2 on a compaq proliant ml 350 with raid smartarray 221 controller. I'm running the system with two (hardware) virtual volumes (4 disks). I tried to add a partition (with /stand/sysinstall) to idad1s1. This should become idad1s1f but when I try to "w"rite the changes to disk the following error appears: "ERROR: Unable to write data to disk idad1!" Unfortunately I'm not able to add any new partitions, why, what's wrong? P.S I'm doing this over ssh network access, so please don't tell me I have to physically be present at the machine to restart in single mode ;-) thx a lot --Boundary_(ID_NJ6f84cYX0LrTthHlONlgQ)--
