To whom it may concern, It seems mdadm does not check, warn, abort, or etc if a partition has an incorrect file system type. This has come up for me on a few occasions while building servers with software raid. On one occasion I had a machine fully up and running on raid partitions that were ext3 not linux auto raid/fd. If possible would really be nice if it could do a check for that. Since one usually has to start over when they discover the problem and go to correct it. Since raidtools is not deprecated, others migrating from it on Gentoo are running into it at as well. At the present time mostly developers. Really would not want users running into it :) Anyway if that could be addressed that would be great. Not sure if this is the right place for this or not. If not please advise, thank you. -- William L. Thomson Jr. Gentoo/Java
