Really? Like, running RAID 1 on two filesystems and linear RAID to stitch 
together a few left-over chunks of unpartitioned space into a single 
filesystem (and, yes, I could have done the same with LVM), whilst other 
filesystems on the same physical disks (which are not as critical) are not 
RAIDed at all? All easily done with mdraid. Been doing it that way for years.
