	First, you're MUA is horrid! Get a new mailer. Second there is a
HOW-TO for Vinum. I have been working on it because well quite frankly the
doc's for Vinum are horrid. They are not horrid if your greg or have done
Vinum 10K times and can do it in your sleep. But if you're doing it for
the first time there next to useless. For the Vinum HOW-TO see:

http://www.jurai.net/~scanner/vinum-howto.html

I would like examples from others on the different configurations of RAID.
Once I complete the examples I will see about getting it submitted to the
handbook.
