Hello,

I apologize in advance if this is documented somewhere, I really tried to 
find out how to do it on my own.

I have a machine with 9 drives in it, one is a 40G boot drive, running 
6.0-RELEASE from Nov 3 (a new install, i am planning to cvsup today).

the other 8 are 60G Maxtor drives. Ideally i want to create a raid5 volume 
from them. Can I do this with gvinum? what are the steps, what am i not 
telling you that you need to know...

Any how-to instraictions, from fdisk through setup would be greatly 
appreciated.

best regards

Brad
