/*
* mdadm has 6 major modes of operation:
* 1/ Create
- * This mode is used to create a new array with a superbock
+ * This mode is used to create a new array with a superblock
* It can progress in several step create-add-add-run
* or it can all happen with one command
* 2/ Assemble
* This mode is used to assemble the parts of a previously created
* array into an active array. Components can be explicitly given
* or can be searched for. mdadm (optionally) check that the components
- * do form a bonafide array, and can, on request, fiddle superblock
+ * do form a bona-fide array, and can, on request, fiddle superblock
* version numbers so as to assemble a faulty array.
* 3/ Build
* This is for building legacy arrays without superblocks
* This mode never exits but just monitors arrays and reports changes.
