Hello All,
Is there any tool apart from mdadm available which can create software
RAID based on Ddf metadata. We want to dump the metadata content and
tally with metadata written by mdadm and our application.
Regards,
Arka

Not that I'm aware of.
dmraid can read some ddf metadata, but I don't think it will create new
metadata.

I thought some BIOS code would be able to do it, similar to how Intel's
IMSM BIOS does it?
