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.
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"
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!!
