Grub worked fine for me on a RAID-1 dual SATA machine. Debian Installer (RC3 - pre-final) installed grub on the first drive and the machine boots like a charm. You just have to grub root (hd1,0) setup (hd1) to make the second harddisk bootable (in case the first one fails). ================================================================To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
