I am trying to implement mirroring over striping. I am running 2.0.35
kernel with raid0145-19981005-C-2_0_35 patch.

cat /proc/mdstat says that personalities raid0 and raid1 are loaded with
md0 to md15 inactive.

I have raidtools-0.90 installed.

When I got to use mdadd, I get the error message

mdadd(pid 3005) used obsolete MD ioctl, upgrade your software to use new
ictls.
/dev/sda1: invalid argument

Which software should I upgrade?

"mdadd -V" indicates

mdadd v0.3d compiled for md raidtools-0.41

0.50 and 0.90 Makedfiles don't compile mdadd. Do I need to recompile the
kernel again? Or is there a simpler way of recompiling mdadd if it is
the problem?

Another question: where should the raidtools directory reside?

TIA
