ERROR: nvidia: wrong # of devices in RAID set

leHau · 20 October 2020 10:26

Hi,

I just used the software updater. The following error occured:

Updating Grub-Bootmenu
Generating grub configuration file …
Found theme: /usr/share/grub/themes/manjaro/theme.txt
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-5.4-x86_64
Found initrd image: /boot/amd-ucode.img /boot/initramfs-5.4-x86_64.img
Found initrd fallback image: /boot/initramfs-5.4-x86_64-fallback.img
ERROR: nvidia: wrong # of devices in RAID set “nvidia_fbcecdfh” [1/2] on /dev/sdc

Adding boot menu entry for UEFI Firmware Settings …
Found memtest86+ image: /boot/memtest86+/memtest.bin

Reloading system bus configuration…

I don’t use RAID. The system specs are:
three hard drives:

sda data drive (encrypted)
sdb boot, root, swap (root and swap are encrypted)
sdc data drive

one flash drive

nvme0n1 windows for gaming

sdc entry in fstab

UUID=268E22D08E2297F7 /media/Stuff ntfs-3g uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=022,fmask=133,nodev,nosuid,nofail,windows_names,auto 0 0

So, is it save to reboot?

no reboot

can you check

inxi -Fza --no-host
sudo ls -lha /boot/* 
sudo lsblk -fs
sudo cat /etc/fstab

Yes you do:

Where does this disk originally come from?

Did you get it for free from a friend?
Did he/she originally use it as a RAID member?
Is it an option to wipe this drive completely and reformat?

leHau · 21 October 2020 13:16

thx for your help

Well, its my oldest drive. I used to have a raid system a very long time ago. I just use this drive for minor stuff. Therfore, its certainly an option to wipe and reformat this drive. I would have made a bet that I had erased this disk since that days

I would proceed as follows

mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdc1

and edit the entry in fstab as follows

UUID=268E22D08E2297F7  /media/Stuff  ext4  defaults,noatime 0 0

(Removed uid and guid and used defaults as it should be mounted for every user with read&write permissions. Or is it necessary? Copied nosuid and nodev when following advices in the web for mounting ntfs systems. I think its no necessary.)

Fabby · 21 October 2020 13:45

As you’re on KDE,

go to the KDE partition manager,
create a new GPT partition table ~~if you’re on UEFI or an MSDOS if on BIOS~~
create a new partition
format as EXT4
mount in fstab with defaults without the noatime as that’s specific for SSDs, not HDDs.

megavolt · 22 October 2020 09:28

Important Not just reformat… since it was used for raid, the whole disk need a refreshment
