Comment 9 for bug 957494

I did build mdadm from source later & installed over top of the distribution copy of mdadm. But, I did have it working before I did this. I decided to do that because the later version did have better support for the Intel matrix storage BIOS. I do have Windows 7 running with IMSM, so I would like to have this working since there will be limited future support for dmraid. As you're aware, Intel recommends using mdadm with kernel v2.6.27 or later. I think it would be a good idea to include mdmon in future builds, especially 12.04, if possible.
