Hi Neil
When testing 00raid1, found the md127 auto created when use "-B" to build a legacy array without superblocks, is it reasonable?
pls check below detailed info:
+ mdadm -CR /dev/md0 --level=raid1 -n3 /dev/loop0 /dev/loop1 /dev/loop2
mdadm: /dev/loop0 appears to contain an ext2fs file system
size=58368K mtime=Thu Jan 1 08:00:00 1970
mdadm: Note: this array has metadata at the start and
may not be suitable as a boot device. If you plan to
store '/boot' on this device please ensure that
your boot-loader understands md/v1.x metadata, or use
--metadata=0.90
mdadm: /dev/loop1 appears to contain an ext2fs file system
size=38912K mtime=Thu Jan 1 08:00:00 1970
mdadm: Defaulting to version 1.2 metadata
mdadm: array /dev/md0 started.
