Re: kernel-image-2.4.12 and booting from a RAID
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
The easiest way to do it is to compile your kernel with RAID built-in
(not a module). Then set your partition type to fd (Linux raid
autodetect).
Your raid will autostart and you can specify a root of /dev/md0. No
initrd magic or raidstart magic -- it "just works".
Now, making root an LVM volume -- that is more fun. :)
