How to configire more than one md device ?

Dear Kernel Hackers,

looking through the setup code in md.c I noticed that there's no way
to define more than one md device at boot time. The arguments after
the last integer are all used as device names.

I tried:

append="md=0,0,4,0,/dev/sda1,/dev/sdb1 md=1,0,4,0,/dev/sdc2,/dev/sdd1"

but obviously only the last instance of 'md=' is used to setup the md
driver. I would like to see md0 and md1 as specified above.

How do I do that ?
Do I have to use modules ?
Do I have to patch md_setup ?

Any help would be great,

Patrick
