Probably not until I migrate to the new raid tools. I did all this
with the 0.42 tool set and am waiting for the current stuff to
stabalize a little more. If you want to mess with it, steal one of
your swap partitions and segment it into little 5 meg pieces and
experiment. That's how I figured out how to do it the first time
since the old tools don't really want you to mkraid a degraded set. I
just put the same disk in the set twice and the tools were happy. As
soon as the mkraid was complete I removed the duplicate entry and ran
created the file system on the degraded md device. I don't know if
this will work with the new tools. I've asked Mingo if this
capability will be added to the tool set.
