Hi again.

I want to mount a linear multiple device with md-0.35 (I do not know where
to find 0.36). I have RedHat 6.0 and kernel 2.2.5. I have found in RedHat a
package called raidtools with programs as raidadd. Do you know if this is
the equivalent to md?. Because this is the explication I find. It worked in
Slackware but not in RedHat.

Thanks again

Sonia
