I have the packages from Fedora 5:
dmraid version:         1.0.0.rc9 (2005.09.23) debug
dmraid library version: 1.0.0.rc9 (2005.09.23)
device-mapper version:  4.5.0
and
kernel:  2.6.16-prep

I see that there is a 1.0.0.rc13, but there isn't a package built for 
Fedora 5 yet. Before I go and build a package; would you consider this 
an "older kernel/dmraid version"?
