I just revisited this issue (Error when trying to save partition information to disk) as you are. I even disconnected all SCSI devices from the system (except for root drive), then added a 36gig to internal SCSI ID2 and still cannot get the disk to work. I copied the SWR_License file to /etc/ and still not working.
the only progress I got is when I select the 36gig drive as Partition 0 from sw_config, and "keep" filesystem instead of "Create" filesystem. The drive setting can then be saved without error messages. But when I start Flame, it errors out and says there is no VOL or Filesystem and cannot compute disk space, and only allows you to exit the application.
There is a flame / smoke start up option that initializes the stoneFS, can't recall it off the top of my head. Worth a shot?
flame -v
I have my doubts though.
Hi all,
Its been more than a year with this particular problem to be solved so I wondered if anyone had seen any success with creating new Stones on external disk arrays?
I've been stuck on old 73Gb drives still (which were part of the original Stone array) but these are dropping like flies due to age and usage.
I have been using fx to reformat, re-partition, re-label these new 300Gb drives but I still cannot get past saving the configuration in sw_config.
Has anyone discovered a way of overcoming this using fx?
Thanks
