Okay, so you're saying that it's okay to set up the partitions manually and don't worry about the moving /boot, right? Is there any support for installing grub on a RAIDed /boot? I think I'm confused, but what I'm trying to do is recover from a failed /dev/sda that contains the only /boot partition. > providing your /boot isnt on LVM, and you don't do anything insane like > run third party defrag tools on it then it will all just work. I never use LVM because most of my systems are basic Xeon 1U boxes with no additional HDD capacity anyway...
