Similarly for LVM.
Ditto.
And YaST does this automatically?
It does it in some cases; I do not know if it does it in every configuration. But this is also orthogonal to whether we need separate /boot or not.
Well, if I'm going to install a new system with raid 5 or 6, my traditional knowhow says I have to install a separate /boot replicated on each disk, and run grub 3 or 4 times manually to install grub on all. Instead, if I can go with no separate /boot and YaST handles it all correctly so that system will always boot regardless of what disk is missing, that's something very interesting to know ;-) I don't mention LVM because I have never installed it. The other configuration I want is encrypted full disk without LVM. YaST does not support it, the procedure is manual. To avoid separate /boot, grub has to understand encryption and ask for the password early enough. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
