I am using Kernal 2.6.32, i havnt raided the machine i havnt had the IRQ issue, as the machine is plugged into a KVM switch, although i will be looking at a clustered setup in the near future.
Sorry Tom,
I was ment to say raid 5, although i may put extra disks in for this.
I know that each virtual machine would create a virtual hard disk file. I know that the installer would put the proxmox OS onto one of the hard disks.
What i want to do is have a raid array just for the...

Is it possible to have the virtual machine disks stored on the raid array, and the proxmox os on the single disk.
