RAID-10 is not the same as RAID 0+1. There's a linux-raid mailing list, the archives may assist in understanding this. Either use RAID-10 or add md2 to the mdadm.conf to get it started at boot. I suggest using RAID-10. -- Bill Davidsen "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
