Hello all,
	I'm trying to create a RAID-1 array  using 2 WD hard drives on  a 
server running knoppix.  For some reason mkraid /dev/md1 creates a raid 
device that is only 5 Gigs, however the partitions I am using in the 
array are about 110Gigs.  This is urgent, so if the answer to this is 
out there but I havent found it on google yet, I apologize.


Here is the relevant Raid configuration:

The server is running knoppix 3.3, 2 WD 120Gig HD's, 2G Ram

mkraid version 0.90.0
