I think you mean "won't" - "the raid device will not be active after 
boot".

This is a nasty corner case in English Grammar - one verb is "I can, 
you will, he will", the other is "I will, you can, he can" !?!?!?

If you mean it is possible that the array will not be there after 
boot, but that the user can just start it manually (ie there's no real 
problem with it), then it's "the raid device won't be active ..."

Hi Wol

Thanks for pointing about this.
I need to explain more exactly. The raid will not be in active state for 
boot. It'll be auto-read-only state.
I'll send the patch again.

Thanks
Xiao
