Gentoo install on a system with 6 hard drives the setup i want is as follows
4 X 37GB Raptors setup with a promise card in a software raid 0 for / with Reinser 4
2 X 120GB maxors setup in a software raid 0 for /home using Reinser 4
The reason i want a Gentoo install is because i have installed many systems (Debian. Slackware, Gentoo, Redhat, Suse) just to name the top ones and I find Gentoo and Slackware to be the fastest (in my opinion) and i find Gentoo and Debian have the best package managers (Again in my opinion) so would like to setup my main computer with it instead of any others
Ok now a bit about me to help you help me
I have installed many (18+) Gentoo systems
I know how to install the developers method or whatever its called for Gentoo
I have configured many 2.6.8+ kernels (50+)
I have installed Gentoo using Reinser 4 as a file system a few times (2)
I have never got a Gentoo system with a raid setup working (able to boot)
I'm really used to lilo
I'm new to grub (Well kinda)(i was told i would almost certainly need this for my choice of setup)
I think Gentoo would make this setup quite insane
Does anyone have advice for this setup I would like?( I know there is a couple kernel options i need to select like for raid 0 and my promise card and Reiser 4 {I plan on using the MM patches} and I know a hardware raid would be best but i would like to do this first)
If i posted my grub after my install do you think that any of you could point out what i _may_ have wrong if it does not boot?
Comments?

[Note: currently the system has 2 raptors and 2 maxors currently but 2 raptors are in the plans to be added on Tuesday when i can get a better power supply]
[Note2: Yes I'm [EMAIL PROTECTED] I probably will make this my future personal email (anyone understand it?)]
