Mirrored - I thought both would work for / but I don't _know_.

Hi
make root bootable from mirrored raid is so simple because it's mirred
disk :)
but if you want boot from striped it's like a magic because you have
to use
memory disk (with raidctl )to start your raid and then chroot in to
new root on your root :)
I thing ccd is not different in this with raid .

- From my point of view you can try to make little boot partition with
some utils and so boot from
and then chroot to ccd striped root.

Cheers,

Adam
