Is it possible to get the 2MiB "bios boot" partition into raid1? This seems to be the most vulnerable part of my setup.
should be no problem when you have the same partitioning on all disks, "BIOS boot" normally have no writes at boot time RAID1 is handeled like a single disk at early boot the only thing you need to do manually is install the bootloaer on all disks and don#t forget repeat it after replace one the only thing i am not sure is the partition type, until now my setups are MBR and sda1 is a RAID1 over all 4 disks [root@srv-rhsoft:~]$ fdisk -l /dev/sda Disk /dev/sda: 1.84 TiB, 2000398934016 bytes, 3907029168 sectors Disk model: Samsung SSD 860 Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x000d9ef2 Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sda1 * 2048 1026047 1024000 500M fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/sda2 1026048 31746047 30720000 14.7G fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/sda3 31746048 3906971647 3875225600 1.8T fd Linux raid autodetect [root@srv-rhsoft:~]$ df Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md1 ext4 29G 7.4G 22G 26% / /dev/md2 ext4 3.6T 1.2T 2.5T 33% /mnt/data /dev/md0 ext4 485M 49M 432M 11% /boot
