raid1 on mandrake 10 with 2x SATA drives
 

Need help on setting up raid1 with 2x SATA seagate barracuda harddrives on mandrake 10.:confused:
Got mandrake 10 installed no problem!(That´s the easy part!)
I read that Linux doesn´t support hardware SATA raid but software SATA raid.
Is this case?
Tried setting up the raid but when using the mkraid command i keep on recieving an error:
[root@FileServer root]# mkraid /dev/md0
handling MD device /dev/md0
analyzing super-block
disk 0: /dev/sda6, 70830553kB, raid superblock at 70830464kB
disk 1: /dev/sdb5, 71931006kB, raid superblock at 71930880kB
mkraid: aborted, see the syslog and /proc/mdstat for potential clues.
[root@FileServer root]# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities :
md0 : inactive
unused devices: <none>

Any solutions???
