Hi, Someone posted a howto they wrote that detailed Root-on-LVM-on-RAID HOWTO to debian-user. I am copying & pasting their post: <post> I've written a doc on how to install a Debian with root file system over LVM and RAID. If it's of any interest it can be found at this URL: http://www.midhgard.it/docs/index_en.html Any suggestion/criticism/correction is welcome. Massimiliano </post> This may be of interest.
