Just FYI, I boot off of a RAID10 on imsm, albiet on older hardware. Some time ago there was a change that the kernel would not autoassemble a RAID with a kernel only, you need to use an initramfs. (OK, I just looked and all I find are "my raid won't boot" results rather than the changes I found a couple years ago. But I did try.) I spent a couple of days trying to get mine to boot and eventually went hell with it and used dracut to create an initramfs, and it was smooth sailing after that. Dan
