There still is a bug here=20 though...the error messages from libdevmapper are obtuse to say the=20 least. libdevmapper explained that /dev/md0 is in use with the message: "Command failed: device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument" That is a bug in my book. I'll reassign this bug to libdevmapper (and retitle it accordingly). I'll also CC all people that I've bugged earlier so that they know that=20 this issue is no more. >Thank you a lot for figuring this out and all your patience. That's ok, you just owe me a beer. --=20 David H=E4rdeman
