If the machine cannot boot with one disk, this goal is not fulfilled. And having the root filesystem unmirrored (and just manually duplicated) is a bit cumbersome and raises some issues (e.g., the root filesystem reference in /etc/fstab). Is there any clue about when this will be fixed ? (Maybe it is done already...) --Thomas Pornin
