Yep. I hope to back-port the 2.4 raid fixes to 2.2, but that won't be
until the new ext3 metadata-only journaling code is stab

Hello,
I've got an SMP system with 2 9G drives in RAID1 config. The disk is near
full and I've had a problem with it deadlocking when a gunzip process fills the

I am shopping around for a good SCSI hardware RAID solution. I've been

these, how they perform (I have heard some people having slow RAID 5
performance
