OK. The steps are, roughly, 1. Use the installer to partition the drives identically. I typically create three partitions: /boot, swap, and / (root partition), but I know some people like to carve out separate filesystems for /srv, /home, /var, etc. 2. As you create the partitions, mark them with id 'fd' (Linux raid autodetect). 3. Choose to create a metadevice of type RAID-1. Build your filesystem on top of that.I know the steps are not quite that simple, but that's the best I can do from memory. It's very achievable, however, and I suspect you'll be able to figure it out.
