Hello, I've read the howto of setting up a software RAID using FreeBSD's vinum. It seems that I can only install the system first on a small disk ( the boot disk ) before we can try to set /etc/vinum.conf for Software RAID support. I wonder if I can just strip up 2 or more disks before I perform the actual BSD installation. In this case, not even the newly mount ( created by vinum ) file systems are of RAID support, but also the / file system can benefit from RAID. Actually, I am planning on using RAID-0 for my test box. Is the boot image capable of doing so ? Or if you have any suggestion ? Thank you! Michael Lee
