Subject: metadata 1.2
Date: Fri, 26 Mar 2010 20:43:52 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100326194352.GA2474@lazy.lzy> (raw)
Hi all,
quick question: what's the use case for metadata 1.2?
I read that the 4K offset is intended to leave space
for the MBR and bootloader, I assume.
The subtext here seems to be a partionless configuration
with RAID, but I'm not aware of any bootloader which
can boot from RAID and fit into 4K.
Clarifications?
Thanks a lot in advance,
bye,
