direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.

Did you make sure to unload and reload the drbd.ko module after changing
the minor-count?
Can we see the output of 'cat /proc/drbd' please? Before adding drbd2,

0: cs:Connected st:Primary/Secondary ld:Consistent
1: cs:Connected st:Primary/Secondary ld:Consistent
2: cs:Unconfigured
