Dave, Sorry I am confused. Are you saying that I should not do as Baho suggested to my Grub's menu.lst? So what now? I am really lost. I am being told to not add any 'mdadm' and 'raid1' modules & hooks into my system configuration because it needs to be done in Grub. But it seems to me now you're telling me I should not have to mess with Grub. I just want a simple RAID1 mirror on my system and the Wiki is a complete mess and not working for me.
