Maybe, but these are raid disks. I needed to know what commands to  
type in order to firstly discover which two of the three disks were  
the mirrors, and then how to mount them to access the data.

Does Puppy include the mdadm tool? I have misplaced the Puppy disk you  
gave me. I usually take it to Surrey LUG with me, but I couldn't find  
it last time.


Best regards,
