(please CC on replies, not subscribed to linux-raid@) Hi! While my RAID6 array was rebuilding after one disk had failed (which I replaced), a second disk failed[*], and this caused the rebuild process to start over from the beginning.

I can't answer your question, just make the comment: Hurrah for RAID-6! I presume the restarted rebuild went OK?
