have you been putting /boot on a mdraid? that's what the article is
recommending against.
I've always put a static boot on each drive, then made the REST of the
drive a mdraid mirror and put a LVM in it. all that needs to be done
is to rsync the primary /boot with the backup following any kernel updates.
