Can I span one filesystem across several disks? I think a filesystem can be as big as you need it. Under conventional means, you would create a separate filesystem on each disk and mount the disks. (does that sound right?) There is some work on a driver called ccd that would allow you to put those disks together into one huge disk. It's still under development and I don't have many details.
