Hello list, As i want lvm on drbd and drbd for the whole disk, exclusive /boot, i needed to find a way to keep two nearly identical /etc-directories.
This lead to the idea to put the /etc-directory on a cd-rw and let / be handled completely via drbd/lvm. Because the /etc-files are only read seldom, mostly only on startup, i don't think, this is a real performance-impact, isn't it? And a cd-rw delivers the possibility for me to make changes and safe them again... What do you think about that? Another possibility would be using an USB-stick for each, but i had bad experiences on some systems in activating usb 2.0 on startup, this was often so slow, that the kernel "didn't find" the disk while booting...
