I'm following > http://kirriwa.net/john/doc/lvm+raid1.html#step3 TIA Well, from the article it seems to indicate "(sic) you can't have boot on an LVM volume" with the mentioned setup, maybe that's the reason why the author leaves /boot out. Anyway, I don't think that's a good guide to follow given there's no encryption in place (something you want) and there's a RAID1 layout (that you can't use). Maybe these other guides will help you better with your task: Setting up an encrypted Debian system http://madduck.net/docs/cryptdisk/ Setting up an Encrypted Debian System http://linuxgazette.net/140/kapil.html How To Migrate to a full encrypted LVM system http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/577 Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
