Further to my last posting re RAID1 on Slackware 9.1 using the "Lange Method": Building extra arrays after booting into the installed system seems to work as expected. It just means that "core" filesystems like /var or /tmp can't be easily installed across more than 4 raid arrays during setup. I guess that some filesystem copying and fstab editing might solve this if really necessary. How/where can I access the raidtab file on the install CD during setup? This would be a good point to include in the HOW-TO.
