Ok I'm convinced, I'll use RAID. I found this page http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/custom-guide/ch-so ftware-raid.html which you'd think would be the perfect set of instructions. BUT IT'S NOT!! I'm trying to follow Samuel's original instructions: -=-=-=- Use software raid 5 on each disk: raid 1 /boot (~100M) Raid 1 as you can't boot off of raid 5!!! raid 5 swap raid 5 / (~2G) raid 5 /var (Most of the rest of your space, for your logs and /var/www) -=-=-=- (Following the steps in the above document) Step 5 says "For Allowable Drives, select the drive(s) on which RAID will be created. If you have multiple drives, all drives will be selected here and you must deselect those drives which will not have the RAID array on them." But if I select more than one drive I get the message "Partitions of type 'software RAID' must be constrained to a single drive. This is done by selecting the drive in the 'Allowable Drives' checklist." Ok, So what's the deal with that? How can you have RAID if you're forced to only use one disk? I don't get it!! AAHH!!
