Hmm... My plan was, originally, to synch up the two boot partitions after a
successful boot, and have a boot record on each disk. But (as someone
mentioned yesterday) I can boot successfully from a RAID partition, I may as
well do that.
Then again, I also need to read further on LVM, which I may be doing on top
of the RAID, so this may not be happening this weekend after all...
