can someone verify if the following statements are true ?
- It's not possible to simply convert a existing partition with a filesystem on it to a raid1 mirror set.
If you create a raid1 without a superblock it is possible (although not a very common configuration). If you do use a superblock, you'll need to shrink your filesystem by 128KB (to be safe) prior to creating the mirror.
