I’ve recently done this on one of my machines, these were the steps I as far as i remember:
If you use luks and/or lvm some additional steps will be needed to grow them as well.
If your system can hotplug disks there’s a chance to pull this off with little to no downtime. :)
I can’t really tell you what to use, but from my personal experience - stay away from glusterfs and drbd. both have caused me serious trouble when trying to run them in a production setup. ceph seems to be pretty solid, though.
This needs a coffee siphon as well, might even fit gentoo better than the espresso maker. harder to set up, takes longer but it’s different from what everyone else is using ;) great coffee, too
nvidia has always been hostile to open source, as far back as i can remember.
back when nvidia bought 3dfx they took down the source code for the open 3dfx drivers within days, if not on the same day. i remember because i had just gotten myself a sweet voodoo 5 some weeks before that, and the great linux support was the reason i chose it… of course the driver code survived elsewhere, but it told me all i needed to know about that company.
also: linus’ rant wasn’t just a fun stunt, it was necessary to get nvidia to properly cooperate with the open source community if they want to keep making money running linux on their hardware.
You can get this as a snack in Taiwan, broken instant noodles with seasoning ;)
