Hi everyone,

I've been using the RAID subsystem quite a bit over the years. This week, for the first time, I created a RAID6 array over loop devices that point to files.

To my surprise the device showing in /proc/mdstat for this new array is /dev/md127. This is a fresh system and RAID has never been configured on it. I tried re-doing everything from scratch again and was sometimes even given /dev/md126 (though I wasn't able to reproduce this one, it happened once).
My kernel is 2.6.20.4.    Can anyone give me a hint about what's going on?

Thanks,
Marc
