Interesting - - - that wiki is current as of 2012.
That's why I wasn't trusting the information - - - - the newest stuff
I could find was
some 3 or 4 years old and I've found that newer stuff has different
gotchas than
the older versions.

The assumption is that LLVM is used on top of the array. (from the wiki)
Is that necessary?
(I've never used LLVM to date!)

My idea was to partition the disks just like normal after the array was built.
Is that possible?

TIA
