Hello, JW.
Where did you hear this nonsense ?
- From SuSE: http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/fhassel_lilo_grub.html Procedure You CANNOT use the boot manager GRUB in SuSE Linux 8.1 if your ROOT partition is installed on a RAID SYSTEM (including Software Raid or LVM). _and besides_, I found out the 'professional' way - by trying it ;-) (Additionally, I thyink either a tech from SuSE or someone on this list confirmed that fact) I cannot find anything in the grub documentation about it either way. The work "raid" does not exist in GRUB's vocabulary, apparently.
I just installed 8.1 Pro on a server with a pair of IBM ServeRAID cards, and grub boots off them just fine.

Ok, so you're a genie and it works for you. That's good! Be happy. Anyway, the information I provided for the common good does _not_ hurt anyone! I simply siad you _might_ find, as I did, that your system won't boot. If you DIDN'T find that your system won't boot, I wasn't talking to you. (In case you still don't understand, I was only talkihg to people who are having trouble booting 8.1. If your system works ok, ignore me. Definately don't complain that I'm trying to pass along helpful information) JW -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE9whF1Q5u80xXOLBcRAhBFAJsHHQrq/TAb6EK5UERGI1tOw5Hr4ACg2tK9 3J/1+9F6so2CAjve5KdqFN8= =RgVo -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
