Hi Andy - thats a fantastic summary. succinct and clear. I'm adding your reply to my collection of how-to notes. I have one question, shouldn't there be a modification to the rc.sysinit script so that it knows the RAID device has been added to the system or does that happen auto-magically when mkraid is run?
