Enable RAID on the boot disk without a reinstall
Authored by: Han Solo on Oct 18, '04 09:42:16PM

I was under the impression that only G5 machines can boot off a software RAID. Is that correct? I'd love to implement a level 1 RAID on my MDD dual G4 with 2 internal drives — if I could still boot afterwards. ;)

I'm booting a Power Mac G4 dual/450 from a mirrored RAID volume, so it can be done on lesser Macs than a Power Mac G5.

It appears that the 933MHz G4 *cannot* boot from a software RAID.
