Everything will be fine with kernel before 7/25 and you'll loose ar0 with the code after 7/25. >Fix: According to Soren there's metadata-code redesign needed but he has no idea yet and no time to do that, so remove cmd649 and sil0680 support from at least "ataraid", but that's too late I think. Urgently there must be some notice about the possibillity of data loss when upgrading from 5.2.1 to 5.3, and of course of the loss of RAID functionality. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-doc->chinsan Responsible-Changed-By: chinsan Responsible-Changed-When: Sun Sep 24 09:01:30 UTC 2006 Responsible-Changed-Why: I'll take it. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=72897 State-Changed-From-To: open->feedback State-Changed-By: chinsan State-Changed-When: Sun Sep 24 09:01:38 UTC 2006 State-Changed-Why: Hi, Does sil0680 based system work well with the 5.5 -RELEASE or 6.1 -RELEASE? If it still doesn't work well, I will remove cmd649 and sil0680 from ataraid(4) manual page.
