Hi Les, I think I will disagree that you need to do anything special
while setting up raid-1. All the making of partitions is on the new
Hard Drive and that has nothing to hurt with an accident :-)
The part following what I wrote is making directories off /mnt and
copy of files from the existing system to the new HD. So I don't feel
the backup is necessary for this work. But as you say we should all
