RAID setup under LDL 2.1 (Iain Stevenson)

[Iain Stevenson]

Hi,

All that looks fine and since you have autodetect enabled it should work. 
I think this is one of those occasions when trying something that appears 
unnecessary (eg giving the kernel arguments) is well worth a try.

wrt Christopher Murtagh's reply about software RAID reliability, I haven't 
seen any RAID errors logged since moving to software RAID so maybe the 
problems have been ironed out.
