Hey, I tried following that article but I got stuck at the part where you start partition your second drive. I created the first partition with 100mb and type of 4.2 BSD then when I tried to create the second partition on my drive as FS_RAID as the article says but it said that FS_RAID is an unknown type and treated my partition as unknown?
To me that part of the article on how to partition my disk is totally unclear. All it says is make the first partition 100m for the boot which makes sense then it doesn't say how to partition the rest of your drive to setup for the RAID 1? Can someone clarify this a bit more please? I'm stuck. Thanks, - Jake Anyways how do I fix this FS_RAID problem On 9/12/07, nicodache <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I personnaly used the following doc to set up my software raid 1 frame : > http://www.linux.com/articles/52713 > > good luck :) > > On 9/12/07, Steve Williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Jake Conk wrote: > > > Hello, > > > > > > I've searched hi and low for hours on how to setup my system of a RAID > > > 1 and basically what it comes down to is ccd and/or Raid Frame.
