Patch 1 fixes the problems I was having with RAID-1 arrays not able to start up on 2.6.17-rc4-mm1. Thanks for that. However things appear still not quite right on boot, as each mount works but displays as though it didn't work, ie: md: considering sdc2 ... md: adding sdc2 ... md: adding sda2 ... md: created md0 md: bind md: bind md: running: raid1: raid set md0 active with 0 out of 2 mirrors 0 out of 2 ? cat /proc/mdstats shows that everything does in fact seem to be working: md0 : active raid1 sdc2[1] sda2[0] 24410688 blocks [2/2] [UU] bitmap: 21/187 pages [84KB], 64KB chunk The array otherwise seems to be fine. I guess it's just a visual glitch. reuben
