Salam to all ,
I have a Linux box which has 2 SCSI HDs installed (/dev/sda & /dev/sdb) , they are used as follows :
/dev/sda1 with 100 MB mountes as /boot
/dev/sda2 with 6 GB mount as /
/dev/md0 with 25 GB mounted as /local
The third partition (/dev/md0) is a Linux (software) raid 0 , that is spanning accross the rest of /dev/sda & all of /dev/sdb.
Now , we are running out of space on /dev/md0 , we want to add a third HD and add it to the /dev/md0 partition without formatting .
Is that possible
Apreciate you help.
Thanks & Regards.
