I am attempting to get my system to run RAID 1 for /, /usr, /var, /home
I have moved over all except for / and it works fine.
After reading the howto "Root file system on RAID. by - Jakob
OEstergaard" I have decided to take the first approach, unfortunately I
can not umount \boot. even after performing a umount -f \boot. I also
performed a lsof | grep /boot to see what was being used and it returned
the following.
syslogd 378 root 5w REG 9,1 8548 192396
/var/log/boot.log
klogd 389 root 2r REG 8,1 191102 12
/boot/System.map-2.2.12-20
Is it safe to kill these?
Also i would be quite grateful if someone could explain to me why I must
unmount /boot inorder for the lilo -r /mnt/newroot to work?
My boot partition is on sda1 and that is on that partition. I actually
had to copy my /boot to my /mnt/newroot/boot else there would be no
files there. An explanation here would really be grand.
What happens when i run lilo -r /mnt/newroot? How will this affect the
current /boot as it is never touched as far as I can see.. Hehe, i am
kinda confused :-)
thanks
