Morning All,

Perhaps you all could clear this up for me... I have mdadm 1.5 installed (from an RPM) on SuSE 9.1 (now running kernel 2.6.8.1). Is it safe to back out 1.5 and install 1.8x from source, or does this require a kernel upgrade ?

regards,

-Peter

Hi Peter

Neil's last mdadm announcment (about 1.8.1 on 5 Nov) said:

This is a "development" release of mdadm.  It should *not* be
considered stable and should be used primarily for testing.
The current "stable" version is 1.8.0.

And it won't need a kernel upgrade.

David
