I have /, /boot, /usr, /var, and /home all as RAID 1.  I can't claim
total credit for making it all work as Red Hat 7/2's installer did
most of the work.  (Though Red Hat couldn't do it with grub.)

Here are my /etc/lilo.conf and /etc/raidtab files:


lilo.conf:

prompt
timeout=50
default=linux
boot=/dev/md4
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
message=/boot/message
linear

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.9-31
	label=linux
	initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.9-31.img
	read-only
	root=/dev/md3
	append="hdb=ide-scsi"


raidtab:

    device	    /dev/hda6
    raid-disk     0
    device	    /dev/hdc6
    raid-disk     1


Oh, it seems I should also get rid of the chunk-size parts, the system
complains about them on boot.



Hope that helps,
