1 x RAID 1 for /boot over all 4 drives
grub-install /dev/sda-/sdv/sdd to have all bootbale

1 x RAID10 for the OS
1 x RAID10 for data

SWAP can these days be a file
/home is here a folder on /mnt/data with a bind-mount

this setup runs on 2 identical machines once installed and
with dd over ssh cloned since june 2011, originally F15 and
in the meantime updated to F15
