Is it possible to alter the MBR in /dev/hdc?
ps: I can also start the system using by selecting 'installation' from the suse disk and than -> boot installed OS -> this finds that a bootable system on /dev/md0 (while hda is removed from the system)...

From an older message: Once the system is up, install the grub software and then install grub on both MBRs like this: grub Grub>device (hd0) /dev/hda Grub>root (hd0,0) and then: Grub>setup (hd0) Grub>device (hd0) /dev/hdb Grub>root (hd0,0) and then: Grub>setup (hd0) quit Now that grub is on both drives just add an extra entry in menu.1st like this: title Linux [MIRROR] kernel (hd1,1)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/md2 vga=0x317 splash=silent desktop resume=/dev/md3 showopts initrd (hd1,1)/boot/initrd This is just a copy of whatever you have for linux already but changing the drive number in parenthesis. Depending on how your motherboard's BIOS handles a failed drive, you may or may not need the second entry to boot. HTH, -- Louis Richards
