Does Debian have or plan to provide a method to install directly onto a RAID device? I know it's possible to do a regular install and then "fix it up" by playing around with the raidtab "failed-disk" directive, so that your disk partitions get mirrored, and then update your lilo.conf to use the /dev/mdX devices (so all your partitions, including / and /boot are mirrored). However, this process is time-consuming and error-prone.
The Software-RAID HOWTO says that only Redhat had some kind of method for installing directly onto raid, but that HOWTO is dated Jan 2000, so perhaps things have changed? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
