This means I the superblock should already be there at the start of /dev/sdg1. so the steps above should result in two superblocks being stacked back to back? should I use an losetup offset into /dev/sdg1 to get to the real data and bypass the MBR copied in from /dev/sda? I am a bit confuse don how these things are laid out. Where on the disk does the information printed from mdadm -E /dev/sda and mdadm -E /dev/sdg1 come from? Thanks!
