It's a good point, but I think it's better addressed by having a "raid" man page that lists all the sw raid commands, whether they're md* or raid*. If the admin doesn't remember the name of the command, she's not likely to remember the options, and it's hard to do a man lookup on "raid-something". (Or has the Linux man command progressed beyond what I'm familiar with?) -- /Jonathan Lundell. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
