RAID (ccd/vinum) with 2 harddisks
Hi. I want to use RAID on a IBM xSeries 345 with two harddisks. So the problem is, i can not setup a RAID System via Installation of FreeBSD (it will be 4.9 or maybe 5.2) and i do not have a System harddisk so that i can use the other ones as a RAID System. Is there a way to setup RAID (CCD otr Vinum) on a System with 2 harddisks (mirroring or stripping)? I would appreciate any suggestions. asg ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
