I'm planning to set my new AMD-64 system up with the bulk of its files on a software RAID-1 device. Although there are now ways to get the system to boot from a RAID device, there are also warnings about the difficulty of using rescue CDs when things go wrong. So I would like to be able to boot strictly from a nonRAID partition (preferably a reiser, but if there are tropubles with that too, let me know).
Presumably I would need /boot, /bin, /etc, and maybe /root off the RAID device, so that it would still boot if the RAID were inaccessible. And I can probably place /usr and /home on the RAID. What else needs to be on nonRAID partitions so that booting and using rescue disks will go smoothly? -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
