How exactly do you install lilo on the raid device? The MBR isn't in the raid, the raid is on the partitions. Now you could install grub to the raid partition too, but most people tend to install it to the MBR, in which case yes you have to install it to both MBRs. There is no difference there in terms of how many places the boot loader has to be installed. It is either all the MBRs or the boot sector of the filesystem in your partition or raid volume in which case the MBR better be one of those that boots to the active partition. -- Len Sorensen _______________________________________________ lpi-examdev mailing list [email protected] http://list.lpi.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lpi-examdev
