Oy.  I don't mind being called a "big gun", but I've zero experience 
with IMSM / software raid combinations.  Not even a sparkler for you, sorry.

I avoid any form of "fakeraid" as too dangerous to play with.  I 
understand it is necessary if you wish to dual boot windows and linux on 
the same raid, but I don't do the former at all any more (no bare metal 
windows in my life for over a decade, now).
