if you're using the sarge installer ... you can have lots of fun fiddling
with it
the basics ... if you're looking for things to look for
fdisk -l /dev/hda -> shoyld say its "FD" partition type
in /etc/fstab
/dev/md0 / ... regular stuff ..
/dev/md1 /swap ... regular swap stuff ..
in /etc/lilo.conf
boot=/dev/md0
...
root=/dev/md0
- you know it's working when:
( all hands off - no keyboard fiddling to get it to boot )
- pull out a disk ... and the system still boots
- pull out the other disk and the system still boots
- write data inbetween the "simulated disk failures"
and see that the data resync to the other disk
