Since you built the software raid on a 5.x box, your metadata version isn't going to be something new that 6.x supported. Only way that would happen is if you rebuilt the array from scratch on the 6.x system (and it sounds like you did not). In the past I've used System Rescue CD to fix older CentOS 4.x and 5.x machines. So first off, back up your data. Second, try hooking the drives to a 5.x system and ensure you can read them (if it doesn't assemble on its own, then you probably have found an incompatibility. ---~~.~~--- Mike // SilverTip257 //
