error: unable to open OSD superblock

Description
I am new at this.
I installed ceph.
When I do a service ceph start, mon.0 and mds.(machine name) seem ok.
When it does the osd.o part, it gets an error
ERROR: unable to open OSD superblock on /data/ceph/osd0: (2) No such file or directory
failed '/usr/bin/ceph-osd -i 0 -c /etc/ceph/ceph.conf'
Any help?
Thanks

Hi John,
Did you create the /data/ceph/osd0 directory? mkcephfs doesn't do it for you because of the potential for accidentally using your root partition for osd data.
If that directory does exist, you need to initialize it by running mkcephfs -a -c /etc/ceph/ceph.conf.

I manually created the directory.
Then I ran the mkcephfs command.
The directory has some files in it (journal, magic, whoami, ...)
When I tried to start ceph, I got that error.
That's when I posted my question.
Sorry - I tried to follow the directions.
Any other ideas? debugging tips?
John, can we see your ceph.conf file? If you have time, try chatting in #ceph on irc.oftc.net as well; perhaps we can get you going interactively.
attaching my ceph.conf.
Can't get to IRC from work - I'll try in the evenings.
thanks

I noticed an issue in your ceph.conf - you have keyring = /etc/ceph/keyring.admin in the global section, and the osd and mds section reset it, but the mon section does not, so the monitors will try to use the admin keyring file. If you add 'keyring = /etc/ceph/keyring.$name' to the mon section of your ceph.conf and re-run mkcephfs, does that help?
You could also just have 'keyring = /etc/ceph/keyring.$name' in the global section and remove the other 'keyring =' lines.
Thanks, but that didn't help.
I did notice that drives get mounted a little weird.
Don't know if that's a problem or not.
Basically I have 1 drive for my OS and 1 that I want to use for ceph.
I created a btrfs partition on the drive and mounted it as /data.
After running the ceph setup, the drive (/dev/sdb1) is mounted as /data and as /data/ceph/osd0
Is that right?
What's the recommended file placement?
