Hello...
I have a server with 4 x SCSI drives and I would like to install Centos
4 (or 5) onto a software RAID 10 array. Do you know if this is
possible? I noticed that under the Centos 4.92 beta, RAID 5 is an option
but for some reason RAID 10 is not listed.
There does appear to be a RAID 10 module....
/lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.8.ELsmp/kernel/drivers/md/raid10.ko
More info I found here:

Many thanks for any help on this; I hate to buy hardware raid controller
if not needed....

This is something I was just thinking about last night for a new server
I am planning..
I would imagine to get RAID10 would require (assuming a 4 drive setup)
you to create 2 RAID1 mirror sets and then using those create a RAID0
stripe.. I haven't attempted this yet and don't even know if its
possible with software RAID yet.. Would be cool, performance and
redundancy.. :)
