- Yes, write RDB to each disk or create a mountlist or do both.
-
- I'm using both a mountlist and RDB, but I a ZIP doesn't have a RDB
- I can still read it asuming it is formatted.
-
- If you don't use a mountlist for it, the system will not be able to
- automatically detect wheter you switched disks or not.
-
-
- So without mountlist, you will have to have the ZIP-disk inserted under the boot phase.
