More likely to produce an output whenever the 1st disk in the array is in the right place as it will just look at the 1st couple of sectors for the superblock. I'd go with the fsck idea as it will try to inspect the rest of the filesystem also.
Obviously that's true, but it's still a good way to be sure of the first disk, and the time cost of the file -s is neglectible...Personally, I would have done both. - 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
