I have the same setup, but with RAID0 rather than RAID1. It's been a year and a bit since i set it up, so my memory would not be good enough to write a howto, but if you describe the problems you are having perhaps i can help. I just followed the instructions in the root on RAID howto. I've got /dev/sda and /dev/sdb sda1 = swap sda2 = raid sda3 = whole disc sdb1 = swap sdb2 = boot sdb3 = whole disc sdb4 = raid silo is installed into sdb3 For a reliable mirror setup you would want to duplicate the boot partition on both discs, and install silo to both discs. I found that raid autodetection doesn't work on sparc so my silo.conf contains append=" md=0,/dev/sda2,/dev/sdb4" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
