The server benjamin was upgraded to Debian GNU/Linux 6.0 Squeeze in accordance with the [[http://www.debian.org/releases/squeeze/i386/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html][upgrading release notes]].
+At some point the raid array did not mount so the installation was interupted. Mdadm was used to setup the software raid:
+
+ : $ cat /proc/partitions
+ : $ cat /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf
+ : # mdadm --misc --query /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1; # for display
+ : # mdadm --misc --examine /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1; # for display
+ : # mdadm --misc --examine --scan
+ : # mdadm --assemble --scan
+
+Then also the logical volume management (LVM) was needed to set up.
+
+ : # vgdisplay
+ : $ ls -1 /dev | grep 2T; # shows nothing
+ : # vgchange --available y 2T_vg-backup
+ : $ ls -1 /dev | grep 2T; # shows VG 2T_vg-backup
+ : # cryptsetup luksOpen 2T_vg-backup/backup backup
+ : # sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/mapper/backup /mnt/backup
+
+The =/etc/fstab= is no longer correct since "ext4dev" is not a supported file system. Instead "ext4" should be used.
