Description: Utilities to support 'new-style' RAID disks
The Multiple Device driver's main goal is to group several disks or
partitions together, making them look like a single block device.
This includes linear adding of disks, RAID-0, RAID-4 and -5.
.
'New-style' RAID arrays have a lot features not present in the
'older' RAID arrays, including autodetection. Old arrays can be upgraded
with this package, and it is mostly a good idea to use this package
when creating new RAID arrays.
.
In order to use this package, you must have a kernel with RAID drivers
which aren't yet included in the stock kernels. You can find kernel
patches for this at ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/daemons/raid/alpha
or from the kernel-patch-raid packages.
