However if more than one raid is present dmraid will show partitions only for the first found raid array. As an example on the testing system there are 3 raid 0 arrays. When starting dmraid under /dev/mapper I can see the 3 raid arrays but the partitions appear only for the first found raid. If I physically remove that array after reboot I can see the second raid partitions. I can provide further system specification if needed.

For the time being, you can workaround this problem with "kpartx -a /dev/..."
on those RAID devices missing partition mappings.
Please send me all 3 metadata samples created with "dmraid -rD" for analysis
(tar/bzip2 the resulting *.{dat,offset,size}" files into
Liviu-Balan_raid0.tar.bz2).
