looking for softraid 0 how to


Hi everyone,

I am looking for some help or a link for setting up a soft-raid 0 under Fedora 11,

I have 2 160gb SATAII hard drives that I want to set up as a RAID0 stripe for performance. My data backs up nightly to my server with rsync, so I am not worried about data safety if one drive fails,

I have found a lot of site that explain how to set-up a RAID1 mirror, but nothing on RAID0. My main dificulty is where to set my partitions and hoe to create my boot partition properly.

Anyone have a suggestion or a link?

Thanks

zog

This page:

http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO.html

Has lots of info, including examples of how to set up RAID0, and may help to get you going...not specific to FC11, but should apply...
