There is a limitation in the install process in that it only installs grub in the mbr of the boot disk. You could make an enhancement request that if the system finds /boot on a raid 1 device (and there are already some checks for /boot so this might not be a big deal) that grub be installed on all of the mbrs. I think the reason there was a problem with the upgrade path is that grub needed to be upgraded because of a change in ext3 systems to handle larger inodes. This upgrade would have been done on only on of the mbrs. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
