They have both 2 partitions which makes the md0 and md1 of the raid. I've set up the /boot on the md0 and an lvm (called RaidLvm) on md1 (with 4 partitions /, /usr, /home and /var). Everything works fine. The problem began when i added a bunch of two disks (hda and hdb) with no raid but a large lvm partition over the two of them (called data) (this lvm comes from a previous computer). When i try to boot, the kernel finds the data lvm but cannot find the RaidLvm and just stops booting... I've tried to export the data lvm, but that doens't help... Any idea? Thanks, Franky
