hi,
I wanted to rescue some files from a broken Win2000 install with grml. The data to rescue were stored on a striped partition on a dynamic disk (Windows' equivalent to a software raid0). However, I did not manage it to reassemble or mount this partition. it appeared as two separate partitions (one on each drive). Google suggested to run ldminfo, but that tool is not there, and I could not find it :(
There is some doku on this in the kernel docs about ntfs, usually at: /usr/src/linux/Documentation/filesystems/ntfs.txt
- Using NTFS volume and stripe sets - The Device-Mapper driver - The Software RAID / MD driver - Limitations when using the MD driver
The recommed way is to use the device-mapper for anything but raid5.
There is an allready compiled ldminfo tool in the ldmtool package: http://puzzle.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/linux-ntfs/linux-ldm-0.0.8.tar....
