The first preview is in http://www.xs4all.nl/~ekonijn/yaird/yaird-evms.tar.gz

This preview is *NOT* suitable for packaging: there are bugfixes in the 0.0.11-x
series that are not incorporated here.

Testing: minimal.  The code was built on a test box, generates an image there,
afterwards code was merged in tla and rolled into a tarball.  The tarball can be
downloaded and installed & will build images.  The images still need to be beat
in shape: no succesful boot so far.

The testcase is deliberately silly: ext3 on lvm on raid1, with both raid components
on same IDE drive.  Standard 2.6.12-1 kernel on newly installed box.  Messages on boot:
- plugin SWAPFS failed to load, error 38, function not implemented
- devfs_mk_dev: could not append to parent for md/0
- raid1: md0 active 2 out of 2 mirrors.
- run_init: opening console: no such file or directory.
- panic: attempt to kill init.

Obvious debugging steps are 'set -x' in init script, running dash interactively
before run_init.  Not today ...

Sorry, no public repository yet.  It's on the todo list.

Regarding dm-raid: lets discuss that *after* we get this working ...

Thanks,
Erik
