I don't know if you saw my post on this thread regarding a similar
document I wrote?

Anyway, to get it into NBSD Guide format, you have to abandon the
burden, and conveniences, of HTML formatting and go with Docbook SGML.

Anyway, I'd be happy to work with you on merging our two drafts
together.  It's a big task to make a well composed document on this
subject.

Anyway here's a few recommendations:

*) Wait until 2.0 branches to finalize anything regarding bootblocks
procedures. If there's one thing that's always guaranteed to change,
that's it. The raidctl(8) isn't likely to change, though

*) Does anyone know if sparc or sparc64's bootblock can read FS_RAID
yet? It was a big 'no' back when I was writing mine.  It would be nice
if the document was platform independent.

*) User Intervention!! I'd like to include screenshots / graphics of an
Adaptec or LSI/QLogic PC BIOS Screens using my PC Weasel to show what
one might do with a quick SCSI Boot ID Change ... or possible cable
swap, in the event of a mirror fail.
