In case it wasn't clear, you should do this for every disk in your raid set. In this machine, I have raid5 over 5 disks, so all 5 of the disks have that partition. Because nothing really uses the space after the partition table and before the aligned sector, you should be just fine. -- Don Armstrong http://www.donarmstrong.com He was wrong.
