Nope, "disk 2: /dev/sda6, failed" shows that mkraid definitely did recognice
the failed-disk directive; it's been in the official tools for quite some
time, the 19990824 tools definitely support it. no need to go for the
"dangerous" tools. Bzw, has anyone checked what's different in this tools
package in comparison to the 19990824 release?

Bye, Martin

PS: the problem was missing kernel patch.
