I would like to try out the new Software RAID feature in the late 2.3.x
series kernel, but I found out that the entry isn't there anymore in the
menu during kernel config.

In fact they are commented off:

<2.3.99-pre3>
bool 'Multiple devices driver support' CONFIG_BLK_DEV_MD
if [ "$CONFIG_BLK_DEV_MD" = "y" ]; then
   tristate ' Linear (append) mode' CONFIG_MD_LINEAR
   tristate ' RAID-0 (striping) mode' CONFIG_MD_STRIPED
# tristate ' RAID-1 (mirroring) mode' CONFIG_MD_MIRRORING
# tristate ' RAID-4/RAID-5 mode' CONFIG_MD_RAID5
fi
#if [ "$CONFIG_MD_LINEAR" = "y" -o "$CONFIG_MD_STRIPED" = "y" ]; then
# bool ' Boot support (linear, striped)' CONFIG_MD_BOOT
#fi
</2.3.99-pre3>

My question is: Why?
Sorry if this has been answered, if so pls post a pointer/URL.

TIA.
