I can't seem to get it to work from what little I can glean from the archives and the man page. I'm trying to install version 6.2 on a 9 TB RAID 6 disk, and I can't get to a point where I have mountable partitions. I keep seeing a message about an invalid superblock whenever I try to mount the new partitions. I'm sure it's something simple I'm missing.
