Folks,
Just got a new 10TB file server with 2 3ware controllers giving me 2 x 5TB
arrays.
Have installed FC4 on it but after partitioning with parted I get endless
amounts of ext2 fs errors. I've tried reconfiguring and initialising the
arrays using 3ware tools but same result. The drives are all showing good
health. fdisk is out due to the 2TB limitation. fsck and tune2fs throw out
various inode/system block errors.
I'd really rather not have to roll my own kernels for XFS/ReiserFS support
and all my other disks are ext3 - I want to export these arrays to 100+
client systems.
Can anyone recommend a better partitioning tool so I can get error-free ext3
filesystems on both arrays?
Many thanks in advance for any advice,
Mac

Yes, use parted or gparted to format and XFS on top of that :)
If you use XFS though, use 2.6.17.7 or later, do not use 2.6.17-2.6.17.6
(corruption bug).
