I'm working on getting a new motherboard, Will I still be able to have |
| 8 |
my boot filesystem on a flash-stick? Currently I have everything except |
| 9 |
/boot on LVM on top of Physical Volumes on unpartitioned raid volumes. |
| 10 |
Having a single drive with an odd size makes swapping drives around when |
| 11 |
they fail and drop out of the raid a hassle, and I do not want to waste |
| 12 |
2G on every drive just to have a 2G boot partition. A flash stick (and |
| 13 |
another one for backup) is very pleasant to work with. Especially when i |
| 14 |
bork my initramfs or need to run maintenance without mounting my root |
| 15 |
filesystem. Will this work on an EFI board ? |
