Originally I made the filesystem on the raw devide /dev/sda5 and it has been flakey. I could write about 10 megs and then the file system would turn into a read-only state. So I read here that the filesystem has to be made on /dev/drbd0.<br><br>Once I start drbd and it creates /dev/drbd0, I am unable to make a filesystem on it. It errors out with "Could not stat /dev/drbd0 --- Permission denied"<br><br>Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!!<br><br><br>[root@fcha1 /]# /etc/init.d/drbd start<br>Starting DRBD resources: [ d0 s0 n0 ].<br>.<br>[root@fcha1 /]# drbdadm primary start<br>[root@fcha1 /]# /etc/init.d/drbd status<br>drbd driver loaded OK; device status:<br>version: 0.7.18 (api:78/proto:74)<br>SVN Revision: 2176 build by root@fcha1, 2006-05-24 13:46:08<br> 0: cs:Connected st:Primary/Secondary ld:Consistent<br> ns:0 nr:0 dw:0 dr:0 al:0 bm:0 lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0<br><br>[root@fcha1 /]# ls -al /dev/drbd0<br>brw-r----- 1 root disk
