Do you have separately partitioned drives with those partitions arranged into single-partition arrays, or do you have one RAID device that is then partitioned? If the latter, you should certainly work with the md device. I prefer to avoid all this confusion by creating a large, single partition array that I use an an LVM physical volume. -- Neil Bothwick "You know how dumb the average person is?
