After doing googling I came to know that "raw" command does the raw operation by linking MD device and LVM volume to the raw device as # raw /dev/raw/raw1 /dev/md0. But when I search on this I came to know that there is no raw (/dev/rawctl) device support available with 2.6 kernel. I have also tried recompile the kernel sources with raw device support it is not getting compiled as it is obsolete in 2.6. If I want to include raw device support in my kernel what should I will have to do, so that I Will be able to do raw I/O on MD device and LVM volumes.
