You could transfer the install to a system which contains a dmraid array, or add a dmraid array to an existing install (I think this thread has been considering only the case of the installed system itself being on the RAID array). Of course, the case where the installed system is not on the RAID array is much less 'urgent' - your system doesn't stop working, you just have to figure out you need to enable the service / install the tool in order to see the array. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
