How is that done if it is not the boot disc? And why can it not be the boot disc, though it could with dmraid? I am still wondering why mdadm discovered the RAID that I had created with the BIOS RAID utility, but destroyed it. I wanted to re-install the machine anyway, but what if had used netboot with nfsroot as a rescue system for the machine? Regards Christoph
