Installing Linux with RAID
I'm going to be installing Linux on my server in the next few days. Actually it's netBSD. I've managed a few Linux installs in the past but I've never worked with RAID in my life and will be setting it up on the server. Would I run through the install and point to hd0,0 or whatever partition I choose for the OS and then setup RAID from within netBSD? I have some Compaq bootable smart start CDs which I guess help you configure your RAID but I haven't had any luck booting from it. I'd rather not mess up the windows server install in vain and have to reinstall it. Especially if I need those discs to boot.
