Hi,

 the subject is pretty selfexplanatory. I"m creating a btrfs using

sudo mkfs.btrfs -m raid1 -d raid1 <smalldisk> <largedisk>

it creates the fs, apparently with the size of the larger disk, no matter in 
which order i supply the disk-arguments.
How can this be correct?

Is there some way like "cat /proc/mdstat" to see what btrfs is doing and to 
assure myself my raid1 is secure? It's not
terribly important data, hence i'm trying btrfs, but i don't want to lose it 
either.

I posted this question on stackexchange as well:

Please CC me in any replies.
