Dennis,
I have just setup a soft-raid box. I downloaded the Software
Raid-howto, carefully followed the directions, and everything went very
smoothly. This is not a real high performance box, P200 overdrive, 128
Ram, 4 1GB SCSI HDD, Raid 5, BUT it does work very well. I am currently
using the raid mount on a samba server. Currently the only thing that is
on there are some audio files (mp3s) while I test this out, but so far,
the performance is excellent. What were your questions?
