    Hi all,

    I am trying to set up bootable root Software RAID1 and the How Tos I have
    found tell me I need RAID compiled *into* the Kernel, not added as a module,
    and that RAID support is part of recent kernels. I am unclear which kernels
    have RAID support compiled in and which don't.

    I installed Woody onto a new Debian system from Woody CD#1 + Net. During
    installation, I chose RAID support in the "Configure Device Driver Modules"
    step, as well as my NIC driver of course.

    1) Do I now have RAID support compiled into my Kernel (Woody kernel 2.4.18),
    or loading as modules?

    2) If I upgrade my kernel to "kernel-image-2.4.24-1-686," does that have RAID
    support compiled into it? What about, "kernel-image-2.6-686"?

    Thanks,

    Roger
