Hi, it's me again. I also wanted to ask if it is supported to use md array during recovery? (with some journaling fs on it). When a system fails I have to wait for about 1 hour while recovery finishes before i mount fs on md, or else it crashes. I tried many kernel versions from 2.4.16 to 2.4.19-pre8, with the same result.
