btrfs has RAID levels 0,1,10 built-in (and will have 5 & 6 some day
in the probably far-off distant future)<br>
<br>
I don't want to use mdraid because not only is it unnecessary but it
prevents checksums from being able to identify a faulty drive. mdraid
really offers no integrity checking, which I'm not willing to do
without anymore.<br>

Try the RAID mirror on a partition pair and btrfrs on the mirror.<br>

This works fine until I try to build a RAID1 mirror because the kernel<br>
must be notified of all devices as a scan doesn't happen automagically.<br>
So I see there is somehow a way to do this with dracut/initramfs, but<br>
I'm lost on that.<br>
<br>
Anyone have any ideas?<br>
