Thanks everyone for the responses. Sorry I didn't answer back for so long but I got pulled off of this to another project.
But I now I'm back on getting FAI to do SW RAID. Does anybody have a working SW RAID "/srv/fai/config/disk_config/FAIBASE or FAISERVER" file that they could share with me as an example? I'm running FAI 3.1.4 that is packaged with Debian Etch.
