I'll look into it more closely after exams (if it isn't sorted by then) but I think in the case of GRUB (from what I've read wrt the hacks to get it to work) it's because /dev/md/0 doesn't correspond to a BIOS device. I get the general impression that GRUB, whilst a very cool bootloader, is a bit rough around the edges when you want to do some of the more esoteric stuff... regards Andrew -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
