I followed all your above instructions already and I upgraded to drbd-0.7.7, too. Unfortunately, I can't create ReiserFS partition and I always get an error when trying to follow step number 4. Below is the output of what I did: # mkreiserfs /dev/drbd0 Guessing about desired format.. Kernel 2.6.8.1-12mdk-i586-up-1GB is running reiserfs_create: could not open /dev/drbd0: Read-only file system Any idea please? Thanks in advance. GNUbie
