Greetings,
I posted this on linux forums and was hoping to see what kind of
responce i could get but they recommended emailing you guys. I apologize
if i shouldnt be emailing you, but here's my question:
"Well i know in windows i can convert the live drive to a dynamic drive,
and then create the raid in just a few simple steps, but how can i do
this in linux? is it possible to convert the hard drive fs type to to
fd? how can i make sda2 and sdb2 into md0? is this possible? heres my
current fdisk output:
Disk /dev/sda: 33.5 GB, 33554497536 bytes

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
