Well I am trying to create a striped(raid 0) raid drive. I read in the document and man page that mkraid can't be used for striped drives. Is there some other step required? Thanks for such a quick reply. Robert

Hi, In the raidtab file you posted, both of the member deivces were listed as being "raid-disk 1". You want the first one to be raid-disk no 0 and the second one to be raid-disk no 1. Try using this raidtab: - raiddev /dev/md0 raid-level 0 persistent-superblock
