Any experience with RedHat booting off HP EVA Sans?

That (the md mirroring) is probably your problem. I've done it with 
simple failover handled by the QLogic driver, but I really doubt the md 
driver will yet handle different paths for the bootable LUN.
HP's CA product would handle mirroring of the LUNs, but it wouldn't 
failover the paths automatically in the case of an EVA failure (that 
requires approx 2 minutes' work).
