Re: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 1.6.0 - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux

The simplest way to access this functionality is with

    mdadm --create /dev/md/XX --auto=partition --level= ....

I finally got it. After mkdir /dev/md, that works.

One more thing: It would be helpful to have a reference between the device 
name (which is user for mounting, partitionimg etc) and the /proc/mdstat 
entry. In my case that would be /dev/md/mdp1 and md_d0.

For unpartitionable raid this is no problem, since the device name occurs 
in /proc/mdstat directly.

Thanks for the great work so far.
