| 2 | # this involves complicated partitioning (with lvm) | 
|---|
| 3 | # the popular version of Grub doesn't cope with this. |

| 5 | # allocate about 1G for /root ext3 filesystem | 
|---|
| 6 | # partition the two disks the same way | 
|---|
| 7 | # that means you have two disks, each with a 1G partition and | 
|---|
| 8 | # a "rest-of-the-space"G partition | 
|---|
| 9 | # now, combine the two 1G partitions into a RAID 1 (as /boot ext3) | 
|---|
| 10 | # take the two other partitions, another RAID 1 (set up as lvm) | 
|---|
| 11 | # create one volume group the same as the host | 
|---|
| 12 | # in that volume group, create two lvs one of them named root (ext3) | 
|---|
| 13 | # and one named swap (copy sizes, 10G root and 2G swap) | 
|---|
| 14 | # F11 will suggest ext4, DON'T USE IT. |

| 15 | #   - New filesystem, so it's scary |

| 16 | #   - The hosts can't mount it |
