Re: compiler errors: md needed for hardware raid?

I don't know whether it is well-tested on Alpha, though, I've never used it :) LVM works fine on Alpha, though personally I'm using LVM2 now :-) Yes it wil do RAID0 without md. if you want RAID1 or RAID5 then you need to set up md and /then/ LVM ok, I will leave md out then... Another thing, under /usr/src I have a directory kernel-patches with an executable inside. Do I need to apply those patches manually, or is it done by make-kpkg? Lars

In xconfig it's under the option Multi device support (Raid and LVM), and when I remove the Multiple devices driver support (RAID and LVM), the option LVM support gets greyed out... Lars

That's right Multiple devices driver support (RAID and LVM) is just a general thing that covers md and LVM1, there's no actual code involved. To disable md simply don't select any of the RAID options on that menu. The options are only grouped together cos they do similar things, not because they share code. -- patrick
