Subject: Preparation advice?
Date: Fri, 26 Nov 2004 23:52:51 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <6d5bedd8041126205255c0fe7d@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Am about to venture into the MD world. I have 4 250-Gig HDs, 1 on
IDE1, 1 on IDE2, 1 on the internal firewire port, 1 on a PCI Firewire
card. So I think I have my failure points reasonably spread :-)
Since two of these are external drives, any special considerations? I
am running a Debian from a Knoppix 3.6 HD Install with a 2.4.27
kernel. I just updated the mdadm package using synaptic to 1.7, which
I assume is the best version to run. My OS/Boot Disk is seperate, so I
don't have to worry about that, but would like to have the array come
up when the system does. Pointers to FAQs on any of this would also be
appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Ewan
