Hi! I am going to install a new development machine soon. Right now I am trying to plan it's configuration. The machine is going to have 3 hard discs (partially) joined into one big soft-RAID5 volume for things like /home, /usr and virtual machines and with /boot & swap partitions on the remaining space. One thing not clear to me is if EVMS is fully supported by openSUSE team. In fact (probably due to the quality of their's manual) it is not clear to me if it provides any *real* advantages over the combination of MD-RAID/LVM2 (except somewhat more uniform management). I did some playing with it on the test machine and found it quite confusing (this is probably again due to the quality of their manuals). Moreover the complete installation (including boot/root partitions) on EVMS does not seem to work right, as it's presence is not autodetected by mkinitrd (it's easy to force it manually, but I don't want to keep track of it). So the real question is approximately following: are there some reasons to choose EVMS except it's bad manual, terrible command-line interface and extra installation difficulties? -- Best regards, Alexander. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
