I recently migrated a network file server with Suse 9.1 to new hardware.
For now, I have only connected the system hard drive and not the RAID,
as there seem to be some difficulties with the controller that I'll have
to look at later.
The system boots normally until something like the following error
appears:
==
Waiting for device /dev/hdg1 to appear: ... resume /dev/hdg1 not found
(ignoring)
Waiting for device /dev/hdg2 to appear: ... not found, exiting to /bin/sh
sh: can't access tty; job control turned off.
==
I can then work with a very minimal shell (no ls, find etc).
I suspect that hdg1 and hdg2 are the missing RAID disks, but I'm not
sure if that can possibly cause the TTY problem. I didn't create the
original system, but surely it wouldn't be set up such that the shell
binaries are stored on the data drive instead of the system drive? Would
it?
Thanks for any hint! :)

My server with raid is using two SATA drives and openSUSE 11.0 has the
drives as:
/dev/sda Physical IDE drive with the system (500G)
/dev/sdb First physical SATA drive (640G)
/dev/sdb1
/dev/sdc Second physical SATA drive (640G)
/dev/sdc1
/dev/md0 As the mounted raid device
I haven't tried running it without the drives installed, but will eventually
test various modes.
What I am suggesting is that you upgrade 9.1 to something a lot newer (11.1
will be out in a week) and probably fix a lot of other potential problems.
