One thing I forgot in system details: This is with the 2.6 kernel.
Haven't tried install with 2.4.

you have a bad raid system ...
you lose one partition and your entire raid disks can be toast

swap can be anywhere on the disks

I just tried to install Sarge yesterday with RAID (md) from the initial
setup on a machine. I tried RAID-0 and RAID-1 and both times the
installation failed on grub-install. It just hung. The third time I let
it sit for about 5 hours and when I got home it was still hung. LILO
failed as well an

It's easier to use. If you know how to use cp, then you'd know how to
use cpbk.
Oki
Has cpbk any advantages over mirrordir or rsync?

hi oki
yes..yes...
your bnackup mechanism and backup implementation will
protect you against only certain failures... a single backup
methodology will NOT protect you against various failure modes
and yes... if you create a bad file or corrupt a file...
and you use raid1 to mirror your data...

It would be great if the copying is done incrementally (copy the newer
files only).
