It turns out that if one uses the kernel (2.4.x-2.6.x) RAID support (RAID5, anyway, since that's all I've tested), the RAID'd disks cannot be moved to another system with a different endianness. I don't know how hard that would be to fix, but it did mean that when my ancient Mac clone I was using as a server died I couldn't bring the RAID over to my spare x86 Linux box; I had to dedicate other hardware (my dual G4 that I had been happily using with OS X) to the task instead. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten into kernel development and, therefore, do not have the necessary expertise to fix it. Is anyone here interested in this issue? --Greg - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
