2. How can I delete that damn array so it doesn't hang my server up in a loop?
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb1 bs=1M count=10
This works provided the superblocks are at the beginning of the
component devices. Which is not the case by default (0.90
superblocks, at the end of components), or with 1.0 superblocks.
mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sdb1
Would that work if even if he doesn't update his mdadm.conf inside the
/boot image? Or would mdadm attempt to build the array according to the
instructions in mdadm.conf? I expect that it might depend on whether the
instructions are given in terms of UUID or in terms of devices.
