One of the puzzling things about this is that I conceive of RAID10 as
two RAID1 pairs, with RAID0 on top of to join them into a large drive.
However, when I use --level=10 to create my md drive, I cannot find out
which two pairs are the RAID1's: the --detail doesn't give that
information. Re-reading the md(4) man page, I think I'm badly mistaken
about RAID10.
Furthermore, since grub cannot find the /boot on the md drive, I deduce
that RAID10 isn't what the 'net descriptions say it is.
It is exactly what the names implies - a new kind of RAID :) The setup you
describe is not RAID10 it is RAID1+0. As far as how linux RAID10 works - here
is an excellent article:
