As an example of the cons: I've just set up lvm2 over my raid5 and whilst
testing snapshots, the first thing that happened was a kernel BUG and an
oops...
I've been backing up using writable snapshots on LVM2 over RAID-5 for
some time. No BUGs.
I seem to recall patches to md floating around a couple
years back for partitioning of md devices. Are those still
available somewhere?
I believe the patches that you are referring to are now included into
the standard 2.6+ kernel.

Hi All,
I am running CentOS release 4.3 with mdadm-1.11.0-2 on IBMx346 server
(2xXeon 3.06GHz CPUs and 4GB RAM). I have a RAID-5 (md8) with 4x72GB
disks. I want to convert it to RAID-10 and increase the size by using
4x146GB disks. This RAID-10 (md8) is to be built by creating RAID-0 on
top of 2
