invalid metadata checksum Sil 3112A

[Heinz Mauelshagen]

Michael,

first of all, we'll investigate, why dmraid complains about wrong
metadata checksums. Can you send me the drive sizes ins ectors
(in files sda.size and sdb.size) and the last 2MB of
each drive (sda.dat and sdb.dat) tar'ed and bzip2'ed (sil-Michael_Lidman.tar)
in private email, plaase.

Regards,
Heinz
