I have recently added support for software RAID array and SCSI drives to my
LRP system.  I have updated the LRP Hard Disk HOWTO, created a raid.lrp
package, and compiled a new kernel to get this running.

The updated Hard Disk HOWTO covers how to get linuxrc (the program that
loads all the LRP files) to load modules from the initial ramdisk, meaning
you don't need to re-compile the kernel with SCSI, IDE, or RAID support for
your particular hardware, you can just create a custom root.lrp.

Hopefully, in the next couple of days, I'll migrate my existing web-server
(which desprately needs more memory) to the new system.  Thanks to the LRP
list members who sent me the memory & SCSI controller I'm using in the new
system.

P.S.  If you think it's sad I'm retiring my 486 web server, not to worry.
The new system is a 486-DX2/66, with a VLB SCSI card.  I'm just switching to
'new' drives (IBM 2 gig full-height 3 1/2") and a motherboard that can hold
more simms.
