Hi All, I'll second this RFI - I /think/ I know how to set this up by hand (I'm following the doc on http://www.ex-parrot.com/~pete/software-raid-howto.html , and have tested booting from each drive from this), but this is neither very simple, nor automatically applied to a new disk when it is hot-added. Thus the procedure will need to be executed each time a drive is replaced. Perhaps a GRUB-forum is a better venue for this discussion? -S > Cheers, > > Lewis > - > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in > the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > -- Simen Thoresen, Dolphin ICS Systems Administration and Wulfkit Support
