Could someone with expertise in Disko help me figure out why my configuration is failing? I am trying to set up a RAID1 array and more or less exactly copied the example config. My config is here, but when I try to deploy it I get this error:

+ mdadm --create /dev/md/raid1 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 --metadata=default --force --homehost=any /dev/disk/by-partlabel/disk-one-mdadm /dev/disk/by-partlabel/disk-two-mdadm
mdadm: array /dev/md/raid1 started.
+ partprobe /dev/md/raid1
Error: Invalid argument during seek for read on /dev/md/raid1

did you try setting start and end?

yep, fails with



  • sgdisk --align-end --new=3:500M:100% --change-name=3:disk-one-mdadm --typecode=3:8300 /dev/nvme0n1
    Could not create partition 3 from 1024000 to 100

@lillecarl:matrix.orglillecarl waltmck: Updated PR, missed that you're double declaring the disks 10:00:21
@waltmck:matrix.orgwaltmck

Updating the ESP partitions as you suggest gives a similar error

+ sgdisk --align-end --new=2:1M:500M --change-name=2:disk-one-ESP --typecode=2:EF00 /dev/nvme0n1
Could not create partition 2 from 2048 to 1024000
10:12:41
@waltmck:matrix.orgwaltmck I also tried setting the boot partition to start="0"; end="1M"; 10:14:37
@waltmck:matrix.orgwaltmck LilleCarl (Salsa9): could you also elaborate on why you think switching to start= end= would help? Has the interface changed and the example files not been updated? 10:23:42
@lillecarl:matrix.orglillecarl waltmck: I might just be using "the old way". I've ran disko for awhile and a half. If it didn't work then I don't know 10:25:33
@lillecarl:matrix.orglillecarlIf you revert the changes, does the device appear as /dev/md127 after disko fails?10:25:53

It appears as /dev/md/raid1. Here more logs for context. By the way, the /boot array is starting fine

@waltmck:matrix.orgwaltmck I am getting a warning at the beginning: trace: warning: mdadm: Neither MAILADDR nor PROGRAM has been set. This will cause the mdmon service to crash. 10:33:15

@waltmck:matrix.orgwaltmck There is a bug about that, it doesn't look like it should actually cause this issue. But who knows 10:34:43
@lillecarl:matrix.orglillecarlNah I've got that same thing on my desktop10:35:02
@lillecarl:matrix.orglillecarl

waltmck: https://github.com/Lillecarl/nixos/blob/master/hosts/shitbox/disko.nix You can compare with mine. I don't raid my bootloader though, I mirror with grub. Don't use my thing as a reference for "this is right".

What happens if you run the erroring command (as root) yourself?

Same thing happens. I am actually running this entire thing as root (sshing to root@hostname)

@lassulus:lassul.uslassulusInvalid argument during seek for read on /dev/md/raid1 seems like a corrupt partition table. can you try printing it with fdisk -l or parted -l?11:12:31
