click RAID > Create RAID to start the RAID configuration.
In the next dialog, choose between RAID levels 0, 1, and 5 (see Section 7.2.1, “RAID
Levels” (page 120) for details). After Next is clicked, the following dialog lists all parti-
tions with either the “Linux RAID” or “Linux native” type (see Figure 7.6, “RAID
Partitions” (page 122)). No swap or DOS partitions are shown. If a partition is already
assigned to a RAID volume, the name of the RAID device (for example,
/dev/md0
)
is shown in the list. Unassigned partitions are indicated with “--”.
Figure 7.6 RAID Partitions
To add a previously unassigned partition to the selected RAID volume, first click the
partition then Add. At this point, the name of the RAID device is entered next to the
selected partition. Assign all partitions reserved for RAID. Otherwise, the space on the
partition remains unused. After assigning all partitions, click Next to proceed to the
settings dialog where you can fine-tune the performance (see
Figure 7.7, “File System
Settings” (page 123)).
