[CentOS] deleting FakeRaid -> what happens to the partitions/data

Hi

A server has FakeRAID installed, I want to remove it to make it mdadm driven ....

If I delete the FakeRAID including

- disabling it in the BIOS - removing the dmraid driver from initrd - deleting all meta data from partitions - deleting all dmraid packages

is the data still available on the drives, i.e. the partitions, filesystem and files are still ok?

I know that FakeRAID controller is not a real hardware controller and the driver (thus CPU doing the work) makes it look like one drive ...

So if you create a partition it would be a standard (and same) partition on each of the drive connected to a FakeRAID?

This would me there are just normal drives with partitions and file system that is ready to be used after the deletion of the faeRAID?

thanks Jobst
