Hi, i use this layout: /boot is on /dev/md0 mirror at the beginning of the 2 disks. lvm volumegroup is on /dev/md1 mirror / is a lvm volume swap and other filesystems are also lvm volumes. mkinitrd creates a /etc/mdadm.conf inside the initrd that contains only the /dev/md1. The system stops when it it trying to check the /boot filesystem - because it is not found. When i add the /dev/md0 into the initrd mdadm.conf then booting works. Am i doing something wrong? Has anyone compared lvm mirroring vs. md mirroring? Reliability, performance, ...? Thanks Florian
