I have no clue on the current state. I have had this setup for a while now... >df |head -1 ; df |grep boot Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sdb1 ext4 579M 125M 413M 24% /bootalt /dev/sda1 ext4 579M 125M 413M 24% /boot Everything else is on various raid1 partitions. The above is kept identical via a nightly rsync. The boot block stuff is installed on both sda & sdb. And yup, would have to swap positions if sda fails. Oh, don't forget to raid the swap partition also; you want *everything* to be able to continue after a drive failure. -- Doug H. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
