i need to remove a software raid 1 form my system. I have yet to find a way that applies to 2.6x kernels. I know the information is out there. Would anyone care to give me a pointer? This array is data storage only and does not house any critical system files.
I'm pretty sure
umount /dev/md1 mdadm --detail /dev/md1 # to identify the partitions used by this raid mdadm --stop /dev/md1 # deactivate the raid
then vi /etc/mdadm.conf and delete the line for md1 and, use fdisk or another partitioning tool and delete the partitions that comprised this raid.
also don't forget to remove the file system from /etc/fstab ...
