Questions specific to the test release (F25 has not been released yet), should be directed to the fedora-test list.
Well, I believe these questions are general ones and not tied to specific (F25) release….
Don't know where you heard that little tidbit. I can tell you that LVM across multiple disks is terrible. When you have a disk die suddenly, all LVs which have PVs on that disk are unrecoverable, UNLESS you are using a redundant raid partition.
OK. Thank you for confirmation of my ’knowledge’. ;)
When using redundant raid, and you loose one disk, you can run in degraded mode until you replaced that failed disk, then you can rebuild the missing portion from the redundant part.
Right. And that’s one reason why I e.g. prefer non-btrfs raid-1 where replacing failed disk is more complicated affair than with md0.
Probably a more historical artifact these days, but it could come into play if you are using a filesystem that grub2 cannot boot from.
OK. Clear.
Now I have to just check whether F25’s GRUB is new-enough to handle XFS on root.
