fakeraid question
Hi,
I read on our bugtracker that fedora deprecated the dmraid package in favour of mdadm for fakeraid devices.
Is this correct does mdadm now support all fakeraid devices? Thanks for your help, i'll change the archlinux package and installer then.
greetings

No. Only Intel Matrix Storage Manager (IMSM) aka 'isw', and some support for DDF.
mdadm does not support other RAID metadata formats - you still need to use dmraid for those.
