I've been following this thread and have a question.  Why are you 
running 
your VMWare instances on raw partitions versus image files on a filesystem?  
We use VMWare a bit over here and found that using image files gives us 
more flexibility in with our VMs(portable, easily duplicatable).
        Also, we use LVM on top of md RAID1 volumes(using libata) here and have 
found them to be quite stable and have good performance.  Plus you then 
also get the flexibility to resize partitions as needed (with some some 
restrictions, of course).
