Virtual RAID

[beezlebubsbum]

I want to do a 5.6 gb install on an older machine. The problem is, it hsa 2x 4gb hard drives. I was wondering if there was a way that I could make it look like one 8gb hard drive without having to make it a hardware thingo. Can it be done?

Redhat (fedora) will setup software raid for you.

The only thing is that you HAVE to have an ext3 partition for your boot partition.

Its fairly easy....

If you have / on one HD and /home on the other, it'll be seamless to users as it is all one filesystem. 8)

I managed to get a software RAID to work. However, the install was painfully slow! Really slow! I eventually just gave up and installed only what I needed...
