Hi all.

I was wondering if the above config will work or if it's still
considered "if it breaks you get to keep the broken stack" ?

I'm building a new toy-server for myself which will run both
raid1, raid0+1, raid5 and maybe raid0+1+5 all using software
raid.

raid1 is straightfoward, raid0+1 as well, but I'm thinking of
taking 4 disks, raid0+1 them and use THAT as a component in a
raid5. (hence raid0+1+5).

If it's possible to do - yes, but will this thing run with xfs
using 4kstacks? (Using FC5).

Thanx for answers.

// Stefan
