Hello to all
Was running a rudimentary server using OMV5 with a software raid 5 of 3 hardrives. Old desktop that I put together. Messed it up upgrade to OMV6 somehow. As I am trying to learn linux command line and networking/servers, I installed Debian 12 on the machine. I have some understanding from working on various linux distributions on vms. Also set up a Ubuntu Server for learning. The Debian 12 was just setup today as I saw some complicated for me videos on mdadm and the possibility I might be able to save the original data.The installation recognized parts of the raid 5 disks.
lsblk-
sda 230 GB SSD with 3 partitions boot disk
sdb indicating md127
sdc indicating md127
sdd original 3rd disk of raid5 is now showing that it apparently has 3 partitions.
Installation when installing grub indicated that it saw and old Debian 11 system on the machine and it may have been accidentally installed on that 3rd drive sdd....
Quite out of my depth but I am really trying to get the raid up without deleting the non-backed up data. The debian is without desktop. Confused myself with mounting, lvms raids and disaster.
Thank you for any assistance.
Cheers
