Re: Root RAID under 6.1 - a false sense of security?

Eric,

What you want is two lilo.conf files.  Here's my lilo.conf for the
secondary harddisk.  YMMV.

boot=/dev/sdb
# the bios statement is important otherwise it will use 0x81 which won't
# exist in a primary failure situation
disk=/dev/sdb bios=0x80
map=/boot2/map
install=/boot2/boot.b
prompt
# Delay for 30 seconds
timeout=300
message=/boot2/lilo.message

# Set Com1 as serial console
serial=0,9600n8

# Force eth0/eth1 to be 100Mbps Full-Duplex
append="ether=0,0,0x30,eth0 ether=0,0,0x30,eth1 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,9600n8"

image=/boot2/2.2.12-6.2-RAID
        label=raidroot
        root=/dev/md0
        read-only
