Re: mirroring

I believe I have notes on how to do this at my office. As soon as I get there tomorrow I will check and send if I have them.

It might be possible with software raid. I don't think it would be with
hardware raid because you'd have to delete partitions etc.

Hi,

I have 2 identical disks but I had installed RHEL 4 on first disk only,
i have /boot and / partitions only. Now, i want to have mirror (raid1)
with the 2nd disk. Can i do this without destroying data on the 1st
disk? Is there a good howto out there ?

Sir June
