Hi,

Never tried this myself but I think you should have no problems with
mdadm. AFAIK JBOD is called "linear mode" in kernel and mdadm terms.
Given that you have compiled the necessary modules you'll have to do
something like:

mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=linear --raid-devices=2 /dev/sd{a,b}1
mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=mirror --raid-devices=2 /dev/{md0,sdc}
