But what about the not being able to reliably put /boot on a raid partition ? I haven't tried this since 4.0, doe it work properly now ?
To be honest i didn't have time to test it (famous last words), but yes, i've previously had problems. Apperently using PALO you can get it to work nicely though:

Indeed. I freaked out when I couldn't get my sata promise raid controlling working in Acer Altos series servers... Till I read an article that said in 2.4 its actually just as quick (if not quicker, depending on server hardware) to let the kernel deal with the raid stuff.
