FYI.
When I set the root ext2 partition over RAID 1 (what I now do on all my servers because software RAID using 2 IDE disks is so cheap), then the type of the partition has to be FDh instead if 83h so that Linux kernel software RAID 0.90 will find the partitions even if the disk changed of name because a previous one is down. The problem is that GRUB will not recognize such a partition as ext2, so it will refuse to load a kernel on it. Should be fairly easy to fix through simply assuming that FDh is the same as 83h, even if it's not always true (true only if it holds a RAID 1 set, as opposed to RAID 5 and others). I think it is possible to specify two boot sequences to GRUB, so GRUB would be abble to boot the kernel even if the first disk in the RAID 1 set is down, what LILO will not do (as far as I know).
