[opensuse] 10.2 no RAID to 11.0 RAID 1



Hi all,

I have recently had a failure of a HDD, after a backup thankfully(if
its any good).

I have decided to implement software RAID 1(mirroring) onto a second
drive of the same size as opposed to going the costly option of RAID 5
or via a DROBO.

I see 11.0 has an option under the partitioner in YAST for RAID and I
am wondering if thee 11.0 install will allow me to create the RAID
array and set it up if it detects two drives of the same size and with
identical partitions?

Wondering
