Thanks. er, "array_sectors in in 512 byte units" means when array_sectors = 2048, the array size is actually 2048 * 512 = 1024K. Is that right? when min_spacing < 1024 at line 158, it becomes zero at line 159. is that right? -- 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
