Hi All,

I'll second this RFI - I /think/ I know how to set this up by hand (I'm 
following the doc on 
http://www.ex-parrot.com/~pete/software-raid-howto.html
, and have tested booting from each drive from this), but this is 
neither very simple, nor automatically applied to a new disk when it is 
hot-added. Thus the procedure will need to be executed each time a drive 
is replaced.

Perhaps a GRUB-forum is a better venue for this discussion?
