I would however like the mdadm-raid script to be able to assemble the array during boot, which works under 2.6.26, and not under 2.6.29,.30, or .31. -- Thomas Fjellstrom tfjellstrom@xxxxxxx -- 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
