But how does it know which of the devices is the master? Does it simply copy the |
| 12 |
first device mentioned to the second? |

Also the RAID configuration gets stored on the partition. (see mdadm -Es |
| 15 |
/dev/hdax). Where will it be put so the filesystem doesn't get corrupted? Are |
| 16 |
there some reserved blocks the fs won't touch? |
