For some reason the file attachment didn't work right so I am resending with the patch as inline text.

Hello,

For those of you who experience the problem of a striped raid generating seek errors in the initial ramdisk image I have updated my patch to redhat nash for Fedora Core 6 which prevents the nash-mount command from probing drives when it is not supposed to (like when mounting the /proc filesystem).
