Whenever I do 


  mkraid /dev/md1

I get an error message about md0 and md1 have overlapping physical
units. Normally I would ignore such a message, but my first atttempt
to construct raid1 hasn't worked so well.

When I finished and boot the system, I always get errors that say that
the superblock size and physical size don't match.  When I invoke fsck
on /dev/md1 I get a pretty nasty error to the effect that my partition
info or superblock is corrupt.  If I ignore the error and continue it
checks clean.

I'm using identical 20GB disk drives.  Even though they are identical
they appear in fdisk with different C/H/S's.  I'm thinking this is why
I keep getting the messages about overlapping disks when I invoked
mkraid /edv/md1.

Anybody have any ideas about this ?

BTW Has anyone noticed that the linux raid archives are FUBAR after
about nov 99 ??

Thanks

Brian
