As has been pointed out it can be troublesome to handle half-broken disks. And its difficult to test. I'd just boot from an USB memory stick (or a CF card + USB reader, something I use). That way the possible failure of moving parts in your system gets separated from the boot process itself. And its easier to test. -- Frank - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
