Fedora Silverblue Rawhide Debian 13 Ubuntu 25.10,
Did a lot of good work today. Got my RAID 0 working again on startup (editing fstab after using mdadn create abd mkfs.ext to format) and buying Take Command which I installed on my Windows for Workstations and Windows Pro Canary Vmware WS VMs. I also have Fedora Rawhide 39 and FreeBSD on VMware. All these VMs are not suspended. Thus I was able to free up a lot of space on my Manjaro root directory with has the btrfs filesystem. by removing ~/vmwareThis is my lRyzen2 desktop with 32 GB of RAM. I have other VMs on QEMU/KVM which I also was to move to the RAID.

Cheers
