    I wasn't terribly fond of the idea of needing an initrd or weird
boot options to support root raid on a sparc, so I hacked on the sun
disk label support a bit to pass "Linux raid autodetect" partitions
up to md.  The extra breakout of the disk label struct is from the fdisk
source, hopefully it's not obsolete.  With this I can boot to a root
raid0 on a sparc 10, but it should of course work on any set of disks w/
proper magic.  Patch attached for 2.4.20-pre7/8.  Please CC on followup.
Thanks,

	Alex Williamson
