The kernel can see the drives, and I am able work with /dev/sda and /dev/sdb (the logical drives under the RAID controller) right of the Crux 2.3 CD :)
Great...
Here is the problem that I currently have: I want to monitor the health of the RAID arrays. After booting the system, I removed one of the drives from the Array. I was expecting to see an entry in /var/log/messages.
I don't know your driver/raid combination, but if you know that you usually get more log output, try to configure your kernel / system log daemon to dump out everything it gets: man syslogd man klogd For kernel development, I also add a line like: *.* /var/log/all to /etc/syslogd.conf and restart syslogd to get everything to /var/log/all. If the driver or kernel doesn't emit enough debugging information, it's propably a good idea to configure your kernel (the latest one) according to your needs (turn on more debugging). However, customizing your own kernel is propably not trivial if you are not used to it...
