Yes I have. The only problem is that SRM needs disklabel partitioning, which
appears to be incompatible with LVM. I found this out the hard way. If there
is a way to get it to boot off of a DOS partirioned drive, I'd be happy. Or
if there's a way to only use disklabel on the drive containing the root
filesystem, allowing the kernel to pick up the LVM stuff after it has loaded.
That would work as all the drives are picked up in SRM and there is no crash
on loading the kernel.
With the hard drives as they are (4 2G, 3 1G) it's kind of useless to keep
them split up. I plan on using the box for storage and backup (it has a tape
drive).
