That's interesting since I have several systems with 1 over 0
including one which is one large partition mirrored as with a pair of
smaller disks in a 0.
Both of these systems seem to work well with any disk removed from
the raid sets. They are all 2.2.14 with the ...b1 patch
I don't have a clue what happens if a disk fails in service, but
manually removing and replacing doesn't seem to bother the raid set
IF autostart is used on the first layer. Without autostart, the array
would not start
The config files from these systems are in the
Boot+Root+Raid+lilo Howto at the Linux Documentation Project
