Re: Rebuilding a Raid 1

Dmraid does still work, but installing requires a bit of knowledge of how it all works and a little tinkering (especially on Ubuntu where the installer is a pile of shit).

Unfortunately only the isw stuff has been implemented in mdadm so far and there are no plans to support anything else.

The problem with dmraid is that the only people who use it are dual booting windows, and unfortunately any dev that delves in is usually going to go all the way to Linux at some point so their reliance on dmraid dies and they move on to more interesting projects.

I was helping maintain the Ubuntu stuff for a while but my main machine now uses a RAID0 through mdadm as I have no use for dmraid.
I still try to test where I can but upstream never accept any of the patches we proposed so the dmraid source archives available are outdated and broken for the lesser used metadata types.

Dear Dead,
 Apologies. this has been a dead project for quite some time now. I think the response from Heinz is an official 'this project is dead' notice. Use mdadm instead. Now find their support group.
