Hi!
The SL-5 and SL-6 installer allows you to create a RAID, an LVM volume group on the RAID and then partitions (logical volumes) in the volume
yeah i know ..
well.. my first principle in doing something is keeping everything as simple it can .. so the question is : why should i use lvm? i read so much about it and so far (many years passed) i didn't found a reason to use it... so back to may subject : i found that is simpler to just make a raid1 over all the device than use the lvm configuration. which brings out the my question again : what is the status in mkinitrd of TUV OS 6?group. Logical volumes can be used for everything except /boot. I'd advice you to do this unless you have really good reasons for not doing so.
I can walk you through the installation steps but I don't think this will be necessary.
yeap .. done it already a couple of time to see how it goes .. Thanks! Adrian
