Read the documentation on vinum. However, if you want the raid established before you install, you'll need to cut a custom installation CD, as I can't see how you would configure vinum until after the system is installed. You might also want to consider a hardware IDE-RAID card. -Bill -- If a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, then what can I get for two hands in the bush?
