-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all! I'm making a text mode installation of CentOS 5.5 on a single disk on which I intend to put a software RAID-1 degraded, thinking of adding another disk later on. But if I try to make the installation in a RAID-1 with a single disk, the system does not allow it. There is any way to do it? Thanks in advance for your replies.
