OK..

Prolly a "Silly question" here..
I wish to install 5.4 on a LX164 mobo, as I have done in the past....

Just one thing, I now have two 18GB hdd's (scsi) and want to use vinum.
The manual states that I cannot install onto a vinum disk, fine.... 
It also says to get around that you install first, using swap as the
first partition.... trouble is, when i try that from sysinstall it sys
that I will break things as the AXP architecture cannot understand
booting from anything that the first lump on the drive...

So, resorting to my friend google, there isn't exactly a wealth of info
coming back to help..

Anyone got any pointers ? (or even a howto?)

Cheers muchly.

AM
