ArmedSlack and RAID?

Hi, I was reading over the armedslack wiki article and noticed that it said "If you're running RAID, you're on your own"; Is it worth trying to run armed slack if you have your dns323 setup for raid1? I would like to give it a try but am not willing to give up my RAID1 config at the moment.

Cheers,

-Gaiko

Re: ArmedSlack and RAID?

With RAID, you have to use different names and commands for the disk partitions. You will at least have to change the names in the commands on the wiki pages, and you may even have to change the ramdisk that boots into armedslack. Non-trivial task.

Re: ArmedSlack and RAID?

When you say "have to change the names in the comands" are you refering to the paths? (like HD_a1 vs  HD_b2 etc?) if not then yeah, over my head. As for changing ramdisks, again, over my head. A pity though, it would be nice to have slackware on my DNS323 (I haven't run slackware for quite a while).

Thanks for the reply Fonz!

It's more like /dev/sdb1 becomes /dev/md0 and such, and different options in the kernel command line. I haven't done it myself, so I'm not sure what exactly is needed.
