How about the day one of your disks crashes? Like, maybe the one that's got pieces of /, /usr, /u, etc. on it, and instead of restoring one drive's worth of stuff, you have to restore everything? Maybe I'm missing something, and there's some easy way to recover from a crash without rebuilding all the disks that happened to have partitions shared with the one that crashed. If so, I'm sure someone will set me straight. -- Dave Sill (de5@ornl.gov) Tug on anything in nature and you will find Martin Marietta Energy Systems it connected to everything else.
