Hi folks. I'm having a bit of trouble, and was wondering if I could get
some help.

I don't think linear supports
I had thought about that, but I tried it without (persistent-superblock 0)
and still get the same results. :^/

I'm getting:

/dev/md0: Invalid argument
The RAID stuff is compiled into the kernel, not as modules. /proc/mdstat
shows all inactive, but mkraid will not work
My apologies for not specifying - I am using the raid0145-19990309 patch
and raidtools-19990309. I don't remember if there were two different
patches (for 2.0.36 and 2.2.3) when I first downloaded it, so I tried
again:
I downloaded a fresh copy of 2.2.3 from ftp.us.kernel.org, and also
grabbed
I'm probably doing something obviously wrong, but I am unable to get a
RAID array using other RAID arrays working. I have created md1, which is
a RAID-1 array using sdb2 and sdc2, and md2, which is a RAID-5 array using
sda6, sdb1, sdc2. All partitions are the same size. md3 is a linear
array,
OK, more info:
