Has anyone tried setting up Software Raid 1 on their Linux box? I have a
spare hard drive the same size and speed as my current drive, and it
strikes me as a good way to deploy it. Some advice about gotcha's and
so on will be appreciated.
I'm using Mandrake 9.1, BTW, with a Seagate Barracuda 7200 rpm 40G
drive, and the spare is an IBM Deskstar 60GXP 7200rpm 40G which I
acquired as a warranty replacement.
