If we're going to do this, should we do it before the 2007.0 snapshot, so people don't have raidtools disappear out from under them on their newly-installed system? Also, is mdadm.conf 100% compatible with /etc/raidtab? I've only minimal familiarity with mdadm on Red Hat, and Anaconda/Kickstart does all the heavy lifting for me, so I've not used it much. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Alpha/AMD64/x86 Architecture Teams Games Developer/Council Member/Foundation Trustee Gentoo Foundation
