Hi Mingo, thanks for the patch. can raidtools-19990824-0.90.tar.gz be used with your patch available on http://people.redhat.com/mingo/raid-patches/raid-2.2.16-A0 for new style RAID on a 2.2.16 kernel instead of the raid0145-19990824-2.2.11 patch. I noticed the name had an A0 at the end, presumably thats's alpha 0 release on 2.2.16? I just want to be sure I understand before upgrading :-) Maybe someone can update the FAQ, to include these specifics and URL's so everyone can be upto date before asking questions. thanks Darren -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Ingo Molnar Sent: Monday, June 12, 2000 1:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [patch] RAID 0/1/4/5 release, raid-2.4.0-test1-ac15-B4 <clipped> i'm also very interested in slowdowns relative to 2.2+latest_RAID, for all RAID levels - does it still happen with this patchset as well? i've tested the patch and it's stable under all circumstances i could reproduce - be careful nevertheless. (RAID0/RAID1/RAID5 under SMP is tested) Ingo
