Yam may face the following 'problem': 1. start badblocks on /dev/sda, throughput is 140 MB/s 2. start badblocks on /dev/sdb, throughput is 140 MB/s on /dev/sda and /dev/sdb 3. start badblocks on /dev/sdc, throughput is 140 MB/s on /dev/sda and 70 MB/s on /dev/sdb,/dev/sdc Alexander -- 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
