I think that problem is software-raid system that is ON. ( md partitions )
Can somebody tell what's wrong or what parameters I need to mount hdb2 partition.
...Lasse...
Yep,
Assuming that the old disk was a smeserver Ver 7.0 or laterThat's your problem, basically you have to rename the volume group on the old drive (so that when you mount it it doesn't conflict with your existing volume group) and then mount it. Here's the procedure:
Boot from SME Server 7.1 install CDpress F5
type "sme rescue" at the command prompt and hit enter
Note: don't start the network and skip mounting the filesystem.
#mdadm -AR /dev/md5 /dev/hdx2
#lvm vgscan
#lvm vgs -v
#lvm vgchange -a n
#lvm vgrename orig_vg_name new_vg_name
#exit
Now remove the CD and reboot
#mdadm -AR /dev/md5 /dev/hdx2
#vgscan
#vgchange -a y new_vg_name
#mkdir /mnt/tmp
#mount /dev/new_vg_name/root /mnt/tmp
You should now be able to view all your old data under /mnt/tmp and if required you can use CopyFromDisk to restore the data as follows:
1. perform signal-event pre-backup on the old disk (probably too late now :-)
2. /sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop backup Program CopyFromDisk status enabled
3. /sbin/e-smith/signal-event pre-restore
4. /sbin/e-smith/signal-event restore-tape /mnt/tmp
5. /sbin/e-smith/signal-event post-upgrade
6. /sbin/e-smith/signal-event reboot.
When finished simply reboot and you system will be back to normal.
