I can't believe I've been using a raid array for 2 years and didn't know
'man md' was there. I've
lived and breathed off of Software-RAID-HOWTO.html but it never mentions it.
Just a suggestion to whom it may concern: it might be nice to mention
'man md' in the Howto as well
as the wiki pages.
Thanks
Mike
