Surely an interesting idea. I wasn't aware of that. Do you have some info on this? The apr 1 info, may be the key parameter. I remember reading snippets in several locations.... but nothing to recall now. I did not really focus on the issue at the time, so it is completely possible it was but a lark, I did not discern..... Still, an interesting idea, some would think. I have taken the path of setting up raid under Ubuntu, as suggested to me by a few old gentoers. While visiting the Ubuntu offerings, it surprises me to see so many (gentoo) familiar folks bouncing around and using Ubuntu, for a wide variety of purposes. Quite a lively and social bunch over there at Ubuntu, many old friends..... Curiously, Ubuntu seems to be able to publish documents, very easily. Publication isn't an issue. We also have http://wiki.gentoo.org where you can quickly set up and publish documents. ] Yes you are correct. Also, I did find the Ubuntu installation media (alternate.iso) for explicitly setting up RAID, as part of the native Ubuntu installation docs and media. Furthermore, Ubuntu on arm boards; documents intended for the rank and file users; very cool indeed. I'm still looking for equivalents in Gentoo; maybe after grub-2 is stable on gentoo, we can get a singular document and matching installation media for installing RAID from scratch..... Also note,native ARM support for netbooks, laptop and lite-workstations is coming to many linux distros. I just hope Gentoo leads rather than follows in that regard. Surely the talent is in the dev_pool to make it work, it's the documentation that is the real challenge, imho. sincerely, James
