Hi,
set MD partitions type to 83 (linux native) and reboot your system.
Now try mkraid. Seems that MD autodetection disable mkraid proper actions.
For autodetection change type to 0xfd.
Best wishes,

I had this same problem a week ago. You still need to apply the appropriate
patches to the kernel to get things to work properly. The latest one from

should apply. I haven't tried patching 2.2.0pre8 myself, but It patc

I've set up a 2.2.0pre8 system (with raid in the kernel) and built and
installed raidtools-0.90. When I run mkraid, I get the follow
results. (I've tried this for raid-1 and raid-5 devices, too.)
