The real problem is that in a striped array one of the drives will

individual drives from the system. In the 2.6 kernel dmraid doesn't
suppress them. So far I have found that
1) I can't use any labels in fstab or it will trigger the seeking
errors problem.
2) have to edit the hal filter also
3) have to edit the lvm filter
4) and now have to edit the udev filter.
So, I can't speak about 2 or 4, but 1 and 3 should be fixed in the
current fc5 test releases.

It'd still be really nice to simply "turn off" physical partitions when
we're using the full device in a device-map.
wait, i tought device mapper used bd_claim on the component devices,
what am i missing?
