no, srsly, LS-QVL finally resync'd, still can't create folders

[awozniak]

blue light.  sync finished, still can't create folders.  Whiskey Tango Foxtrot.  Now what?

[awozniak]

Bueller?

[oxygen8]

you can create folders on good arrays
have you a good array?

[awozniak]

yes, i still have the old drives, but that's really not the point of this exercise.  I'm trying to upgrade the rig with new, larger drives.

[awozniak]

NAS navigator says "Drive (RAID 5)" and a red bar that says "Unformatted".

I tried clicking "Format" for "Array 1" in the web interface, but that didn't do much, just left me back in the same state i started in.

i have also tried all of these.  none of them worked.

java -jar acp_commander.jar  -t 192.168.0.107 -c "(echo foo; echo foo) | passwd"
java -jar acp_commander.jar  -t 192.168.0.107 -c "(echo foo5baR; echo foo5baR) | passwd"

java -jar acp_commander.jar -na -t 192.168.0.107 -c "(echo foo5baR; echo foo5baR) | passwd"

in all cases, the password does not work

anybody@livingroom:~$ ssh root@192.168.0.107

ok, the gui worked!

mount: mounting /dev/md2 on /mnt/array1 failed: File too large

Is this my problem?

I'm using four x 8TB drives

[awozniak]

Yeah,  I think it is a 16TB thing.  Three 8TB drives in a RAID5 works fine.

[oxygen8]

raid maximum is 16TB.

[awozniak]

If I can get "inode64" into the mount options for XFS, would that help?

[oxygen8]

Changing the CPU to intel atom would help.

[awozniak]

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic, or if you're actually serious.

Is this something that is actually possible?

I've dumped enough time money and effort into this project, I would not be opposed to dropping another $100 or so if there's a standard form factor board of some kind I could put in there and make work.
