Greetings https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/SATA_RAID_Boot_Recipe Found the above recipe - - - the preface there is that this is an existing system. I am wanting to have all of /efi/boot, /, swap, /tmp, /var, /usr and /usr/local on one raid-1 array and a second array for /home - - - on a new install. I have tried the following: 1. make large partition on each drive 2. set up raid array (2 separate arrays) 3. unable to place partitions on arrays 1. set up the same partitions on each set of drives (did allocate unused space between each partition) 2. was only allowed one partition from each drive for the array Neither option seems able to give me what I want. (More security - - - less likely to lose both drives (2 M2s and 2 SSDs).) Is my only option to set up the arrays and then use LVM2 on top? (One more point of failure so would rather not.) Is there another option somewhat like the method outlined above - - - recipe is some over 10 years old - - - or is this the only way to do things? Please advise. TIA
