Use mdadm instead of dmraid to support BIOS RAID (Firmware RAID or Fake RAID) during the Fedora installation process.
Owners, do not implement this work until the FESCo vote has explicitly ended. The Fedora Program Manager will create a tracking bug in Bugzilla for this Change, which is your indication to proceed. See the FESCo ticket policy and the Changes policy for more information.
+1
It’s unfortunate that support for new installations on some old BIOS RAID formats will be lost, but the impact should be small, and it’s a worthwhile sacrifice to make. Continuing to use dmraid when it is not actively maintained would not be a good option.
(FWIW, I think that the common subset of people who a) have the very old raid formats and b) are installing new Fedora on those disks is bound to be very very small. While there might be some users out there, I would expect that they just continuously upgrade.)
After 1 week, this only had +2, so waiting until the second week is over to count the votes.
+4 ?
After a week, it was +2. The remaining +2 happened after.
But what matters is the tally when the issue is evaluated for closing. There is no rule that that can only happen at one week intervals. It must happen no sooner than one week after opening, but anything >= 7 days is OK.
I disagree. (I understand the ticket policy differently.)
(And it doesn't really matter here, this will be approved soon anyway.)
+1 from me coming in late. 😉
After an additional week (and ignoring the question of when the vote ends), the vote is
APPROVED (+5,0,-0)
