HI, before a manth I've installed suse 9.2 on this: hda1 30GB (Windows) and hda2 50GB (suse)
now I have second hard disk that is formated like this: hdb1 50GB and hdb2 10GB
I would like to make RAID1 of hda2 and hdb1. Can I do that with YaST? There is an option "make raid", but I don't want to screw my suse instalation wich works like charm. Does anybady made RAID1 after installation of suse on one hard disk? How can I make RAID1 and keep my nice installation? -- Mirko
Yes, you can do that, I'm not sure there is yast module for it yet or not, but you can use software raid for this, its pretty much bullet proof. Avoid raid-ing your boot device, it just complicates the matter, but even that is do-able. man mdadm http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO.html -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
