G'day all...

One of our servers here has two identical SCSI HDs in it. Only one is 
currently used, and I want to combine the two using software raid 
(RAID-1), using them as the root filesystem.

Has anyone done this under Mandrake 8.2

This is what I'm considering doing:

* Adding an extra HD to the machine on the first IDE, and copy the 
contents of the current root filesystem onto it.
* Make the extra HD into the root filesystem using LILO.
* Make the two SCSI HDs into the raid device.
* Copy the root filesystem onto the raid device.
* Take any extra steps as outlined in the HOWTOs.
* Update LILO.
* Remove extra HD.

Any ideas, pointers, tips or help appreciated.

Thanks.

Mike
