I'm creating a raid1 for redundancy. I have an existing regular ext3 drive with data on it and added another drive of same size. So I created a raid 1 with just the new drive (obviously degraded state atm) so its called /dev/md0 I created an ext3 partition on that device, but it does not show up in /dev/md0p1 like it should according to fdisk.
In fact, I was able to do mkfs.ext3 /dev/md0
It's formatting now.
Does this even make sense? From my understanding md0 is equivalent to like sda, its a device, not a partition. So how is this working and why does /dev/md0p1 not show up?
