Re: Software RAID-1 under 5.2

[Aaron Turner <aturner linuxkb org>]

Steve makes a good point.  Do not under any circumstances use the
raidtools rpm's.  YOU MUST COMPILE IT.  

Personally I haven't done an upgrade, but from what I hear on the
linux-raid list, as long as you are using a recent raidtools (0.90) you
shouldn't have any problems upgrading to the 2.2.x kernel later on.
