If you are doing root raid, please also search for "grub mirror" on
Google. RHEL4, and therefore Centos 4, does not handle root raid grub
installation properly. It will only install on one disk and if that disk
goes, you have a non-bootable system. Fedora Core 4 handles this
properly from what I hear and so RHEL5 will too when it comes.
