The way I did it was one drive at a time.
I did two, one for boot, the second was the OS
Hi Bob,
So far swap, are you doing a file? I was also thinking this route.
boot- add a raid partition, did it for each drive, then make a raid device and select all both drives, /boot for mount point
OS- added a raid partition for each drive, then when you make the raid device select physical volume as the file system type and both raid partitions you made for the OS.
So if I wanted 2 partitions, one for OS and the other as a snapshot target, do I create them here as physical volumes or below as logical volumes?
then you hit create again and select volume group, select the raid device you want to play with. you add mount points, these are your logical volumes... /swap / /var etc etc etc....
Thanks in advance,
