1	IIRC when you add a device to a mirror say with;
2	mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md127 --level=mirror --raid-devices=1 --force
3	/dev/sdb3
4
5	I thought the filesystem is maintained and so /dev/md127 should be
6	immediately mountable, however, it doesnt mount.
7	mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/md127,
8	missing codepage or helper program, or other error
9
10	Am I confusing linux software raid with solaris?
