Well, as I understand it, if you're not using hardware raid,
specifically, if you're using IDE, then having the RAIDed disks on the
same IDE controller mostly defeats the purpose of RAID (at least RA

I've downloaded it, and read the docs. I compiled the kernel with
support for these devices.
They will go on a machine with 3 200m ide drives, which will be a poor-man's

You want mdtools (the package) and md device support in the kernel,
wither compiled in or as a module. Either works well. I have two RAID0
partitions spanned across two 4 GB SCSI drives. Works great.
The md commands actually have useful man pages. If you need more info,
feel free to email.

I've noticed that linux supports volumes across physical devices.
However, I haven't figured out which command to use to set this up. I

jointly as /usr. THis volume will also be served out by nfs. Could
someone give me a hint as
