I am building a raid 5.
On the drive i make two partitions. One is 4095 FAT partition for efi boot, which stays outside of raid 5 on all 4 drives.
Second is a raid partition which i later create lvm on.
All this confuses people, they think i am trying to put efi on a raid5 also. So for now lets just forget raid altogether.
All i want to know if how do i copy the efi boot to the rest of my drives sdb1,sdc1,sde1 which also have a efi boot partition. After the install the bootloader is only copied to sda. I want all the drives to be bootable just in case sda goes bad.
Do i use grub-install /dev/sdb or some tool, or dd the 4095 onto the other drives? Please let me know if anyone else has done this successfully.
