Hi All,

Please, Help !

I've created a raid5 array on a x86 platform, and now wish to use it
on a mac mini (g4 based). But the problem is : the first is
little-endian, the second big-endian...
And it seams like md superblock disk format is hostendian, so how
should I say mdadm to use a endianness ?


Read the man page several times?

Look for "--update=byteorder"

You need mdadm-2.0 or later.

besides IIRC version 1 super block is always little-endan.
