Why on earth would you want to do such a dangerous and useless thing ? As I wrote in a previous message, there is plenty of free space on the disk to create a new BIOS boot partition of suitable size. > This should be completely safe since it is > just a swap partition and contains no permanent data. Shrinking a partition is never completely safe. > There is no need for RAID on the ef02 partition. The BIOS boot partition *must not* be used as a RAID member. It must not be used at all. It's just a raw empty partition. It does not need to be formatted as FAT or whatever. Any format will be destroyed when grub-install writes the bootloader in the partition. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
