PS - I would have partitioned just, say, 20GB RAID1 (gives good read
performance) or RAID5 (slower writes) for hdx2 / root filesystem,
leaving the rest RAID5 (for capacity) LVM on hdx3.  You didn't say what
RAID you used for hdx3/md2.



Thanks for the head's up on the stack issue.  I'll give that a whirl.  Since
I'm on Gentoo... recompiling the kernel isn't much of an issue. ;)

This is basically how I'm using my 4x 250GB ATA-100 Disks

md0 hd{a,c,e,g}1 - RAID1 128MB  (Yes... actually 4 RAID1 members... *shrug*)
md1 hd{a,c,e,g}2 - RAID5  80GB  PV for rootvg VG  (system filesystems)
md2 hd{a,c,e,g]3 - RAID5  >600GB  PV for mythvg VG (video storage
filesystem(s))

So... typically when my hard-locking occurs... it's md2 that's resync'ing
when I bring the system back up.... the stack-overflow problem might explain
it completely... I'll give that a whirl and let you know.

Thanks,

Andy
