i'm trying to get autodetection to work on a RAID 5 raiddevice made up
from three devices. two of them reside on disks with DOS-style partition
tables, the third is on a disk with a BSD disklabel. all of them have the
partition type set to 0xfd, but only the first two devices are configured
at boot time.
See message <1019846049.1670.76.camel@peecee> on this mailing list. I
am in the process of patching my personal 2.4.19-rc3 to do
autodetection -- in the long run initrd is the way to go.
HTH,
