Hi Martin
I often use the serial console for installs just to save digging out a screen
and keyboard - especially on servers which are going to run headless anyway.
What I do whenever I download release ISOs is unpack the disc-1 image to disk
(tar now does this, I believe), add the line

You can try to create a Mirror using RAID. You can either create a
software or a hardware (recommended) managed Mirror. In case of a disk

Hello DharneshK,
You can try to create a Mirror using RAID. You can either create a
software or a hardware (recommended) managed Mirror. In case of a disk
both are software. while the "software" one you talking about is gmirror -
very portable and easy to use contrary to BIOS-based "hardware"

raid is a good solution for avoiding data loss due to hard disk failure (at
different rates depending on the raid type ). But it wont help you if someone
accidentally or on purpose delete files. Raid will happily replicate the

Have a look at this article:

It may give you some ideas although it is for Linux. The basic premise
is to make qemu emulate the guest host so it appears as any other
physical host on the network. It may work better.
