Software Raid.

I am having issues getting ANY (hardware) bootable raid going.  I am working
with the tech support of the MB manufacturer however I must get a system up
and functioning.  My intent is NOT to raid the boot drive per se, but rather
to create an image of the drive with all software installed, then move that
image to another identical machine.  I would be using Mirror as a
replacement for Norton Ghost or similar software.

Never tried it.  but if you are building this for your VLDB system, keep in
mind that hardware raid is always faster and therefore better than Software
Raid.
