Source: kernel-patch-2.2.20-raid
Section: devel
Priority: extra
Maintainer: Camm Maguire <camm@enhanced.com>
Build-Depends-Indep: debhelper
Standards-Version: 3.5.6.0
Package: kernel-patch-2.2.20-raid
Architecture: all
Depends: bzip2, patch
Suggests: raidtools2
Description: Ingo Molnar's patch of raid2 functionality to 2.2.x
This patch enables the "new" raid functionality, standard in 2.4.x kernels,
to be used with 2.2.x kernels. When running a kernel with this patch,
one should install the raidtools2 Debian package, which will also facilitate
upgrades of older raid arrays to the new structure. New features include
optional kernel autodetection of raid arrays at boot time, recognition of
raid arrays when disk device names have changed, and "hot" adding and
removal of devices to running raid arrays. A small patch has been added
to run the autodetect procedure when raid modules are loaded, thereby
enabling initrd scripts to probe for and analyze filesystems on raid
devices when looking for a "real" root filesystem.
