Nice.  I'm putting about 12 gig togther on a MD0 raid system.  Biggest
problem with raid in linux is expansion. :-)  Right now it's a matter of
tar, unmount, wipe, add new disk, re-raid, mount, reformat, untar to
expand.  Grr.  And that only works with 16gig dat tapes.

Anyway i'll upgrade to .4 and see if that works.
