Thanks, Conor. I'll be exploring this great idea in the near future...as soon as I can reliably restore to Drive #2 from MondoRescue. --Carol Anne -----Original Message----- From: mon...@li...

As an aside, I used my own hack to configure two raid 1 drives to boot independently of the other but still into the raid device. No non-raid partitions at all. See "Booting from a RAID array" at: http://cod.homelinux.org/C/index.html It includes a script to incorporate a new blank disk into the raid array. I used this on an RH 7.2 machine with mondo as the backup and had it tested and happy with mondorestore...
