[Stuff about striped disks]

You don't mount each drive, you mount a virtual device called a concatted
disk that has been told that these raw partitions are what create the
logical partition.

On an Auspex this is done with an /etc file, with 4.4BSD lite it is
done in the kernel config file, with AAC's stripe driver it is done
with an ioctl right now, but will use the /etc file very similiar
to an Auspex once the user land commands are written for it.
