Fedora 11 "server"

You do know that Fedora is the less stable testing ground version of 
RHEL/CentOS, right? You really want to run your server off that? You 
know, Fedora or Ubuntu putting the word "server" in the mix doesn't 
necessarily make it a proper best practice server platform... (no flames 
please we've all heard the rubbish counter points before from people 
running their one server off a usb stick plugged in to on an ipod 
shuffle...  ;-)   )

No. Everything on /var would be lost. You would be better off using 
RAID1 if you don't want to lose data. If you've already lost a disk, 
consider it a learning experience.
