freebsd 7 sofware raid-5
hello, i have 3 pata drives and probably the best option would be to use raid-5, as it would save my data with 1 drive loss, and the usable space is not bad...
questions would be: 1. is the gvinum best thing to do raid-5... 2. as far as i read, gvinum cant be loaded that early to use all the disk space in raid-5, so as i know people use usb flash sticks to boot kernel with gvinum from it and later mount all the things... the problem is that i did not find any decent articles on how to build custom kernel to the flash drive... |
