Re-install it. There are some tools in the install process to allow you to set
up software RAID. There on the same screen as the part where you set up the
partitions and filesystems, there should be a tab called RAID.

Adding software RAID to a machine after it has been installed is possible, but
painful, and should be avoided in most circumstances.
