New tool to activate ATARAID devices on Linux 2.6

[Heinz Mauelshagen]

All,

I'm pretty much up to speed implementing a tool "dmraid" (see design posting
to linux-raid and linux-lvm), which is capable to activate various
ATARAID sets on Linux 2.6 (eg, Promise FastTrak, Silicon Image Medley,
Highpoint 45x) using device-mapper.

I need help with these issues:

o anyone who can send me Highpoint 37x metadata copies (sector 9 on each disk),
  disk geometry and size in sectors of all drives involved ?

o anyone have reengineered LSI MegaIDE / MegaRAID sw-RAID metadata yet
  (last sector on each device) ?

Regards,
Heinz    -- The LVM Guy --
