Yours is a bit of a special case: if you didn't have an array across /dev/sd[abc] that you did not purge, everything would have worked. Thus, for 90+% people, the solution is adequate. Sorry it caused you trouble. I always welcome patches to help improve mdadm. :) -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madd...@d.o> Related projects: : :' : proud Debian developer http://debiansystem.info `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://vcs-pkg.org `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
