Hi all,

AFAIK, grub does _not_ support RAID.
You would habe to install grub into the MBR of all drives part of md0.
GRUB cannot be installed into the boot-sector of a partition.

Good question. I don't know. What I do is simply move the driver

CUPS problems... surprise
Acroread startup is very slow on my gentoo sistem. It takes more
than 2 minutes to start acrobat on my old AMD Duron 800 MHz. Also
on further startups the load time stays more or less the same.
The CPU is 100% used during most of the startup period, which is
strange. Top shows CPU usage of 75-98%

I can. It takes ~40 second at P4 2.4. Acroread isn't open source,
so, instead of filing any bug, I switched to kpdf :-)
