KS won't partition drives

[Blair Lowe]

Hi,

Now that the drives are partitioned (thanks again Phil!), we need to
make raid drives on them.

I tried to use the:
#boot
part  raid.01 --asprimary --onpart hda1
part  raid.02 --asprimary --onpart hdb1
#usr
part  raid.03 --onpart hda2
part  raid.04 --onpart hdb2
#var
part  raid.05 --onpart hda3
part  raid.06 --onpart hdb3
#swap
part  raid.07 --onpart hda5
part  raid.08 --onpart hdb5
#/
part  raid.09 --onpart hda6
part  raid.10 --onpart hdb6
#home
part  raid.11 --onpart hda7
part  raid.12 --onpart hdb7
#
raid /boot --level=RAID1 --device md1 --fstype ext3 raid.01 raid.02 
raid /usr --level=RAID1 --device md4 --fstype ext3 raid.03 raid.04 
raid /var --level=RAID1 --device md3 --fstype ext3 raid.05 raid.06 
raid --level=RAID1 --device md6 --fstype swap raid.07 raid.08 
raid / --level=RAID1 --device md2 --fstype ext3 raid.09 raid.10 
raid /home --level=RAID1 --device md5 --fstype ext3 raid.11 raid.12

but that did not work and the error pop-up in kickstart was:

"A raid device of type RAID1 requires at least two members"

The alt-f3 error messages claim

"Your root partition is less than 250 megabytes which is lower than is
recommended for a redhat linux install"

So I should create the raid partitions from first principals too, or is
there something in the above that is not correct.

I have no idea how to use mkraid, and the man page for is is extremely
skimpy, so any examples are well worth showing here.

TTYL,
Blair.
