I'm starting to grow a distaste for it, so maybe I'm going to go through the ubuntu install process again. It looks like installing ubuntu is hellish (for me) but _using_ Fedora is really unpleasant (for me). Hopefully the installation phase will be shorter than the using phase, but the way things are going, you never know... ;-) >> Dapper (and Breezy for that matter) installation doesn't support LVM >> well; it's almost as though it was untested.

Why not? I've been having trouble finding out enough details of how BIOS raid works to judge between it and other options. One concern I have about softraid is that there's (AFAICT) no RAID possible for the /boot partition. > I wouldn't combine LVM with softRAID either, but well, that's just > my opinion.
