Hi Neil, [22:33:46 sinhas]$ diff raid0.c raid0.c.orig 160d159 < zone->dev_start = 0; [/usr/src/linux-2.6.29/drivers/md] [22:33:59 sinhas]$ I see this piece of code missing and being used later. Not very sure of the code flow, but still as part of defensive programming. Am i missing something? -- Regards, Sandeep. “To learn is to change.
