Thanks guys for the input. I'll test it out. Another question, if one of the 
hard disk failed, can the OS boot normally? Previously I tested, when I plugged 
out one of the hard disk, it just can't boot... I'm not sure why....

i run with software raid.  hehe - i did not even 
consider it would remove that package, but...mdadm is still on my machine after 
i installed with qmt-iso, and my raid is happy right now...  maybe qmt-iso 
keeps that package in...

Well it removes sendmail and since mdadm depends on mail-client then 
it wipes off mdadm also. You could remove sendmail with --dodeps option or 
after 
installing qmail reinstall mdadm (since qmail provides mail-client dependency) 
. 
As far as I know mdadm is only utility for managing raid devices and software 
raid will function without it.

I bet many of us (including me) run 
mailservers on software raid.

  Hi all,

Is it okay that I configure Software Raid with Qmail? I 
  saw in the dependency checking script that it will actually remove mdadm 
  packages, am i right?

Please 
  advice.

Gabriel
