Hallo, Hugo, Du meintest am 06.12.10: Can you try that again with either the latest 2.6.37-rc, or with the btrfs-unstable kernel? There's a bug in earlier versions that breaks the reporting of RAID types, which is what I wanted to see here. Compiling 2.6.37-rc is no big problem, it only

Hallo, cwillu, Du meintest am 05.12.10: Maybe you're right. But if you're right then I have got the worst of two worlds. I don't want neither RAID0 nor RAID1, I want a bundle of different disks (at least partititions) which seem to be one large disk. And I've hoped btrfs does this job.
