I am happy to report that raidreconf worked perfectly for me.  I needed to
enlarge a RAID-0 array from 43 gig (with 3 disks) to 64 gig (on 4 disks).
Before conversion the array was about 58% in use with actual data.  The
enlargement run took 29 hours to complete.  Following conversion, e2fsck
reported as follows:

> /sbin/e2fsck /dev/md0
e2fsck 1.14, 9-Jan-1999 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
/dev/md0: clean, 5481/11522048 files, 26546130/46086080 blocks        

Thank you, Jakob for your great reconfiguration program.  While 29 hours
is a very long time...:)  It would have taken much longer to reload
everything from the backups if I had started over from scratch.  I still
need to run ext2resize to enlarge the file system, I hope that goes as
well!

Best Regards,
Robert Laughlin
