Hmm, I read the Linux raid faq on
http://www.faqs.org/contrib/linux-raid/x37.html
I've found some information in 

/usr/share/doc/mdadm/FAQ.gz

I'm wondering why this file is not advertised anywhere
(eg. in 'man mdadm'). Does it exist only in debian packages, or what?
With 'man 4 md' I've found a little sparse info about raid10. But
still I don't get it.
I have added a FAQ section to our howto wiki, and added a reference to
the above Debian FAQ, along to a few comments on it.
great, thanks, for reference it's here:

  http://linux-raid.osdl.org/index.php/Mdadm-faq

I'm wondering, that maybe we could copy/paste that FAQ into that
page? After all that website is the ultimate source of information
about linux-raid. Whatever is updated in that FAQ would hopefully
find its way back into the original FAQ...?
That was my plan at first, but then I discovered (from reading the first
couple of lines...) that there already was a web page for it.

I hesitate copying the page as it is already maintained.
But my idea was also the harvest the best info out of the outdated FAQs
and then maintain it on our wiki.

best regards
keld
