I don't even need that detail in my command line. (This box has five RAID-1 |
| 14 |
partitions, composed of identical partitions on identical SATA disks.) Mine |
| 15 |
just looks like this: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
kernel /boot/kernel-x86_64-2.6.27-gentoo root=/dev/md0 vga=0x31A |
| 18 |
video=vesafb:mtrr:3,ywrap fbcon=scrollback:128k splash=silent |
| 19 |
|

The md code in the kernel manages to find all the partitions at boot time |
| 21 |
and stitches them together properly. No problem. |
