Right ? Tia , JimL Yep. My mistake. It should have been: echo 'DEVICE /dev/hd* /dev/sd*' > /etc/mdadm.conf As I think you realised, --config is pointless with -Dsb, as it doesn't read the config file, it reads /proc/mdstat. However --config would be meaningful with -Esb, and the next release will allow it.
