Hi Peter,
I'd follow the instructions here:
http://www.linuxhowtos.org/System/raid.htm
Note that I've not actually tried it myself, but from a quick glance
through appears to be reasonable.
Of course you do have a backup before you start just in case, don't you?
Following the instructions at the end of the page worked for me when I was
setting up Grub to boot from a software RAID1 array.
Regards
Andy

I have read the howto's and all the FAQ's I can find. I am trying to do
the following and having zero success:
An installed system needs to have a second disk setup with the first as
a raid 1 set.
I have been able to boot from a CD and create the md0 md1 and md2
devices. I cannot however, get any of these to mount afterwards. I
assume that mount doesn't know what type of fs these are and I'm not
seeing anything in the docs about what type I can use.
Eventually this raid set needs to be able to boot. We use grub as the
boot loader. If anyone has done this or knows how and can offer any
assistance I thank you in advance.
We are using 2.4.29 kernel in a home rolled package but have both
raidtools and mdadm tools available.
Cheers!
