Glen,

     No. It did not work without the chunk-size being specified (mkraid returned
'invalid argument', and failed). Nor would it work with the chunk-size set to 0.
It worked with chunk-size set to 4.

Um, do you mena you tried specifying chunk size as 0 ?
I havent tried linear raid,  but i think you have to leave the line out
altogether.
but im no expert
