But that is another thing. i use an external write-intent bitmap on a raid1 to avoid this... you could use internal bitmap but that slows down i/o too much for my tastes. i also use an external xfs journal for the same reason. 2 disk raid1 for root/journal/bitmap, N disk raid5 for bulk storage. no spindles in common. -dean - 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
