Re: RELEASE: RAID-0,1,4,5 patch 1998.12.14, 2.0.36/2.1.131-ac9

[MOLNAR Ingo]

yes, the 0.42-raidtools => 0.90 upgrade problem for RAID1 is fixed. (if
you have an old RAID1 config, about the only thing to do is to add
chunksize to the config file, any value will do, say 32k. Then do the
--upgrade, it will upgrade without data loss)
