I'm testing out accessing a "Windows DynamicDisk Raid0" array under linux,

auto
start all arrays found there). Basically I have to manually run "mdadm
--build
/dev/md0 --chunk=64 --level=raid0 --raid-devices=4 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1
/dev/sde1 /dev/sdf1" then "mount /mnt/winraid" when I want to access the
filesystem (using ntfs-3g if anyone was wondering).
Of course you don't have to run it manually. You can put it in
a script in /etc/rc5.d/Sxxwhatever
That is in fact the recommended way of doing this. There is really
nothing that mdadm can do for you to make this any easier, so it
doesn't bother.
It doesn't, and couldn't, support
ARRAY /dev/md0 devices=/dev/sdc1,/dev/sdd1,/dev/sde1,/dev/sdf1
level=0 metadata=none
appearing in mdadm.conf?
Cheers,
John.
